Dr. Alex S Rivlin MD

Description

Many patients have an idea of hypnosis, as a kind of entertainment or magic.
However, medical hypnosis is a method of psychotherapy,which is used to treat a wide range of diseases and conditions.The nervous system penetrates everywhere within the organism. By influencing the nervous system, the muscles, vessels, heart, endocrine system and immunity of the organism could be affected. In the hands of a practicing physician, M.D.,versed in modern medicine (medicine, blood tests, functional studies) hypnosis as a method of psychotherapy is a great strength. Patients who are interested in the medical practice of Dr. Alex Rivlin usually ask what the doctor is treating and how. Any disease is a combination of organic pathology and fear. Fear is a powerful force. Stress destroys the body by the weakening the immune system. Additional factors of destruction are suddenness of the disease and lack of knowledge about the mechanisms of the disease create fear. This fear helps the disease to destroy the patient. Prevention, early detection and early elimination are powerful forces to fight disease. If the disease doesn’t create an internal panic, its course is often easier to manage.
