Abstract
Cancer patients often experience uncomfortable side effects of chemotherapy. Using a combination of hypnotherapy and family therapy, the therapist can help the patient deal with the issues of terminal illness. The potential value of a combination of these two approaches used in conjunction with normal medical management is demonstrated in the case presented.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
