Wanted to pick your brain on the whole hypnotherapy field combined with allied medical professions.
Do you guys think adding the credential of certified hypnotherapist would be at all beneficial to an audiologist? There's an 8 week certification program offered this summer at a community college near me and it just got me thinking I suppose. Once the course is completed you can then become a member of the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association. Seems like some medical doctors and dentists are taking advantage of this currently.
Here's their site:

Thoughts? Feelings? I'm somewhat skeptical of hypnotherapy as a whole, but then again that might be because the only hypnosis I've ever seen has been the gimmicky entertainment kind where the end-goal is to make your usually reserved grandpa bark like a dog or something.
