Abstract:
In the training of the doctors, even specialists, training courses are generally not available for communication and for the relationship with patients in developmental age. Some techniques such as illusionistic techniques are increasingly described in the scientific literature as tools that can be used in the areas of care and rehabilitation. In this work, clinical experiences are presented on the use of illusionism techniques in clinical consultation with patients suffering from organic pathologies, based on a review of the scientific literature.
