I encourage you to watch this YouTube Video about Tourette Syndrome
An interesting Tourette Syndrome study was published in the July issue of the Journal of Development and Behavioral Pediatrics.
Tourette syndrome is an inherited neuropsychiatric disorder that appears in childhood. It is characterized by multiple physical and vocal tics. It is estimated that as many as 10 per 1,000 people have Tourette syndrome. The exact cause of Tourette syndrome is unknown, but genetic and environmental factors are known to have a role. Sadly, there is no universal medication to control the many variations, degrees, and manifestations of the Tourette tics. The medications that are available are used sparingly and in the lowest dose possible, as the medications’ adverse effects are often more disturbing than the Tourette symptoms.
As one can imagine, children with Tourette syndrome are usually socially awkward, teased, and are viewed as bizarre by their peers. So, the study titled- "Children and Teens With Tourette Syndrome Find Relief With Self-Hypnosis," is welcoming news for those with Tourette Syndrome.
The study was of 33 children and adolescents with Tourette Syndrome. It found supporting evidence that self-hypnosis reduced their symptoms and improved their quality of life.
Each participant watched a video and was given self-hypnosis training in individual sessions. They were then assigned to practice the technique three times a day and answer questions about their tics and how they felt experiencing them.
Seventy-nine percent of the research participants achieved enough tic control improvement to report that they were personally satisfied with the technique. According to one of the authors of the study, Dr. Lazarus, self-hypnosis helped the patients experience a state of mind that combined relaxation with concentration on a desired focus point as other thoughts and feelings fade into the background.
