SUBJECT: woman.
PROBLEM: anorexia, bulimia, psychogenic vomit, hiatus hernia, gastroesophageal reflux, leaky cardias (main problem); suggested a laparoscopic surgery, complete refusal of the subject, with preference for a hypnotic attempt.
APPROACH: no induction; entrance in my office in an evident trance state; immediate self-exploration; production of blocks, transpiration, coldness, tingling, hot flashes; body out of control; feeling of a sly, sinister, malefic emotion; violent physical reactions; single session because of subject's great distance from my office.
RESULT: easier swallowing; diaphragm more free; positive mood.
FOLLOW-UP (1 month): less acid reflux even without PPI drugs (antacids); nose and ears no longer hit by acid; better digestion; nervous hunger reduced; bulimia disappeared.
