Exploring Roles of Hypnosis in Obstetrics, Pain Management, and Beyond

Host: Matt Birnholz, MD Hypnosis in Obstetrics. It’s something you probably just don’t hear about every day, but the practice has existed for more than a century and in that time collected a fair amount of evidence on its behalf. What are the benefits and risks of hypnotic practice, both in the obstetric domain and in the wider arena of medicine? Joining Dr. Matt Birnholz to separate fact from fiction about hypnosis in medicine at Omnia Education’s Women’s Health Annual Visit in New York is Dr. David Gandell, Clinical Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Strong Memorial Hospital of the University of Rochester in Rochester, New York.
