Hypnosis Helps: “You Are Getting Hairy.”

by Bald Man on August 26th, 2006

According to a Reuters UK article, there just might be something to this. The article references research published in this months the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology. “Hypnotherapy may enhance the mental well-being of patients with alopecia areata and it may improve clinical outcome,” writes Dr. Ria Willemsen and colleagues.

The study was hardly conclusive. The same size was small, and the hypnotherapy was done in conjunction with more traditional treatments. If nothing else, I think this speaks to the power of attitude and expectation on one’s physical state of being. In makes some sense though. Psychological factors, such as stress, can cause hair loss. Why wouldn’t a psychological approach to treatment have the potential to work?
