Complementary Medicine > VISUALIZATION
XIII VISUALIZATION Visualization is the use of the imagination to create pictures of desired situations or conditions. With any visualization technique, the more powerful and complete the picture, the greater the response. Consciously using visualizations allows participants to use the imagination in a structured way, providing clear links with dreams and desires and thus allowing relaxation and the control of the physical symptoms of disease. Put simply, by thinking about feeling good, the patient will feel good. In addition, participants try to visualize how the body appears internally in an attempt to overcome some common physical illnesses such as hypertension (high blood pressure). Some people also believe that effective visualization focused on improving the efficacy of the immune system can slow down the rate of progression of cancer and AIDS, although this remains a topic of considerable debate. Visualizations allow exponents to reinforce feelings and thus combat stress and some of the physical manifestations of disease.

Conclusion > By thinking about feeling good, the patient will feel good.

I don't think we're talking about the same kind of visualizations - We have music-responsive visuals here, not some sort of psycho stuff :igor:

"Whoops, sorry, nearly slipped there, didn't we? We'll just fix that in a sec. Don't worry about that little amount of blood flowing out of you, I'll get the nurse to set you up for a nice visual right away.

Next please... :)"
