Therapy and suggestion are closely related. That is clear for the ancient time: primitive medicine gives a good place to the Word. In plant, animal or mineral remedies, the suggestion is clearly preponderant. Towards the end of the 19th century, the "Ecole de Nancy" sets up a real theory of the suggestion, and Bernheim, its leader, bases hypnosis, then psychotherapy on this concept. Thereafter Coué will bring up the "conscious autosuggestion". Today, despite the progress of scientific medicine, the part of suggestion is still very important in medical therapy (with or without drugs), or in chirurgical therapy; this part is also very important in psychotherapies, whatever has been said in this field. This has to be known and used consciously in the doctor-patient relation, which is always essential in the therapeutic effectiveness.
治疗与暗示密切相关。这在古代就很明显：原始医学非常重视言语。在植物、动物或矿物疗法中，暗示显然占主导地位。19世纪末，“南锡学派”建立了一套真正的暗示理论，其领导者伯恩海姆将催眠术，进而将心理治疗建立在这一概念之上。此后，库埃提出了“自觉自我暗示”。如今，尽管科学医学取得了进步，但暗示在医学治疗（无论是否使用药物）或外科治疗中仍然非常重要；在心理治疗中，无论该领域有何说法，这一部分也非常重要。在医患关系中必须有意识地了解并运用这一点，而医患关系对于治疗效果始终至关重要。
