How To Cope With Hot Flashes

8. Medical Hypnosis

According to a study from Baylor University, medical hypnosis may be able to treat hot flashes. The study was performed on twenty-six breast cancer survivors with severe hot flashes due to early-induced menopause from various cancer treatments. Results showed that five sessions of hypnotherapy resulted in a sixty-eight percent decrease of hot flashes. The participants also reported sleeping better at night and experiencing less anxiety. Research shows that medical hypnosis may work just as well for women with natural menopause.
