Why Placebos are the Best For Planter Wart Removal!

For anyone who has ever experienced the discomfort of planter warts, what is most troublesome is determining the best, easiest and least painful method of removal. There are countless methods that have been created to remedy planter warts of the feet and hands, however many of these simply do not work 100% of the time. From ineffective medical procedures like freezing, burning, acid, and cutting to more effective and practical treatments such as clinical hypnotism, affirmations and visualization. This article aims to inform the reader on some of the many treatments that are statically ineffective and extremely painful, as well as introduce some other methods of treatment that are painless, natural and easy to use, and beneficial.

Medical text book commonly state that there is no one common treatment that is 100% effective for removing planter warts. The average success rate of curing for any method practiced by medical professionals is roughly 27%. The most comprehensive medical review you can find online was conducted by the American Family Physicians association and it states that various placebo methods had more then a 73% effective success rate. Before we discuss what methods they found that worked, let’s discuss some of the less then effective methods currently being used to cure planter warts.

The main method of removing warts from a Pharmacological point of view is acid treatments. A number of chemicals called keratolytic chemicals have been in use for many years now. This is despite their ineffectiveness and even despite the fact that they often damage the surrounding skin around planter warts, allowing them to grow bigger then before the treatment. Trichloroacetic acid and salicylic acid are the most common types that can be purchased at drug stores all across North America. It is recommended that you avoid using any of these methods as they are unable to treat the root of the problem.

In order to kill the planter wart virus, medical professionals developed a form of chemotherapy. This involves placing a gel that contains glutaraldehyde on the surface of the planter wart or even injecting it directly into the wart. These methods tent to be very painful, and for reasons that are not quit completely understood, the warts most often return stronger then before, leavening the patient off worse then when they started. This treatment was later replaced with two surgical procedures.

Liquid nitrogen and lasers were believed to be effective treatments. The liquid nitrogen would be applied to the planter wart surface with a swab and held for a number of seconds. This would kill all the cells on the surface and often the surrounding skin cells as well. The problem with this method was that it wasn’t able to treat the root of the wart, where all the growth came from. The same is true of the lasers that would be used to systematically burn layers away from the planter wart in an attempt to prevent growth. Sometimes this method is effective, however it often left major burning scars when the skin returned to it original state. Liquid nitrogen and laser treatments are next to useless for one simple reason.

It is common knowledge that a planter wart is a virus, it forms a body of it’s own in the skin, and attaches to the veins to get its energy. The blood supply to the wart is what keeps it alive. Many of the ineffective methods of planter wart treatment are unable to stop the supply of blood to the wart, allowing it to continue thriving. What is not so well known is that a persons dominant thoughts can affect the flow of blood to any part of the body. For example, when a person visits a hypnotist to remedy a wart, a competent hypno-therapist is able to relax the patient, and give them positive suggestions that will actually affect the blood supply to the wart, forcing it to crumble away after a few days, leaving fresh pink skin. When visualization is used as a treatment, the subconscious mind is empowered to actually slow down the blood flow to the wart, starving it until dies away. In the same way that suggestion, affirmation and visualization can affect the blood flow and kill the planter wart, the placebo affect can accomplish the exact same thing. This explains why magical remedies have been used as a cure for generations.

Despite the fact that many of the common medical treatments for planter warts have been statistically proven to be ineffective on the great majority of people, it is quit clear that when a suggestion by a doctor results in the placebo affect the desired effect occurs. This means that 7 out of 10 times a planter wart cure is found, it has been the result of the placebo effect. So if you have seen your doctor and received an acid treatment, freezing or laser cures and you are unsuccessful, you should look into an alternative remedy that forces your subconscious mind to do the work for you. This way of curing planter warts is not only less painful, but it is also much less stressful on your mind and body and you will amaze yourself at how powerful the healer within you can be.
