A obesidade é uma doença de difícil controlo, que está associada a um grande insucesso terapêutico, sobretudo a longo prazo. Nesta síndrome multifactorial, há uma componente psicológica que actua de forma subconsciente e que é responsável, em parte, pela falta de motivação e de empenho nos programas de perda de peso, contribuindo para as sucessivas recaídas. Desta forma, há necessidade de encontrar novas intervenções terapêuticas complementares que sejam sobretudo dirigidas a esta vertente psíquica. Este trabalho tem por objectivo averiguar o contributo da hipnose clinica no tratamento da obesidade, analisando os eventuais benefícios que esta abordagem possa trazer às restantes terapêuticas, bem como, avaliar a sua eficácia.
Obesity poses serious disease control issues, often associated with long term therapeutic failure. Within this multifactor syndrome, an underlying subconscious psychological component may be partially held accountable for the lack of motivation and commitment in weight loss programs and corresponding repeated relapses. Consequently, there is need to envisage new complementary therapeutic interventions, specifically targeting psychological factors. The aim of this dissertation is to ascertain the contribution of clinical hypnosis in obesity treatment, analyzing the potential benefit this approach may add to other therapeutical methods, as well as its efficacy.
