Relieved Os Allergy By Being Hyptonized Report Is Given By Top Practitioners By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor NEW YORK (UP)-People allergic to the pollens of spring will find it very hard to believe what they're about to read. They shouldn't allow that to bother them because many doctors of medicine who specialize in allergy will not want to believe it either. Nevertheless, it is true. A woman almost unbearably allergic to the new grasses, flowers and leafing trees was relieved of her affliction by being hypnotized once a week and then hearing suggestions that this year she was not going to come down with asthma and hay fever. I Now comes the really astonishing thing! Cherfiically she remained sensitive to the pollens. Yet when she was given the standard skin tests, there were no resulting hives to indicate a “positive” reaction. Evidently suggestion under hypnosis had not only suppressed asthma and hay fever but the bodily chemical processes behind them. J Mind Plays Part All this was reported "by —two ultra-respectable medical practitioners to the top-drawer international technical journal, “The Lancet.” To know the sources of information is particularly important here. This information is of one of the clearest demonstrations on record of the possible strength of the “mind' part of ; allergic reactionsThat there is a “mind” part is 1 generally accepted, but many i medical experts believe it has to ‘be entirely subordinate to.. the ibody chemistry sensitivity to pol- | lens —or . whatever foreign substance causes the distressing chemical reaction. The woman had had annual bouts with the spring pollens of trees, grasses and flowers for 11 years. From May to July every year her nights were made miserable by asthma and her days by hay fever. There was no question of her chemical sensitivity; skin tests were markedly positive. Put In Deep Trance Drs. A. A. Mason and Stephen Black treated her by hypnosis as an out-patient of a London hospital, Once a week, she was put into a deep trance and told: “This year you will have no difficulty with your breathing, either at night or during the day time. This year you will not Jiave a blocked nose, your eyes will not run, there will be no. itching around your eyes, and you will not have sneezing attacks.” This went on from April 28 to July 8. The “suggestions” were followed: she had no allergic attacks of any kind Once a week during this time she was given skin tests of her chemical sensitivity. The first one was quite positive, but the degree diminished week-by-week until it got down to zero. But toward the end of the pollen season, a sample of her blood was injected into a non-allergio volunteer who thereupon reacted to injections of extracts of the pollen. This “passive transfer’* test showed her allergic chemistry hadn’t been changed but it had been suppressed. Is Strongest Factor An odd twist was that when skin testing on the arm no longer produced the hives which mark the positive reaction, skin testing on a leg produced them. The next time she was hypnotized, she was told she would have no reaction anywhere on her body—and she didn't. The reporting physicians pointed out the three known factors in the cause of asthma and hay fever—a foreign protein, such as pollen; body tissues sensitive to that protein, and a mind factor “in no way understood.” In their woman, they continued, this mind factor ‘was shown.to be the most powerful of these three." # i.
