Hypnose pour interventions chirurgicales - Forum Hypnose 2013

Développer le pourquoi et le comment de l’utilisation de l’hypnose en chirurgie de la thyroïde/parathyroïde, en chirurgie carcinologique du sein, lors des arthroscopies du genou ou encore pour les endartérectomies carotidiennes.

Le but est d’expliquer l’intérêt de l’hypnose pour ces types de chirurgies et d’expliquer les particularités de l’hypnoanalgésie pour chacune d’elle.
