In his Medical Hypnosis(1948), Lewis Wolberg, one of the most influential psychotherapists of his day, discussed three main categories of psychotherapy: symptom removal, re-education, and psychoanalysis. Wolberg refers to re-education under the broad heading of "psychobiologic" therapy, meaning "mind-body" therapy (or what Braid termed "psycho-physiology"). Wolberg defines this approach as follows. Psychobiologic therapy is the name given to a variety of technics, chief among which are guidance, reassurance, persuasion, desensitisation, re-education and reconditioning. ... Psychobiologic therapy is a far more rational form of treatment than simple symptom removal by prestige authoritarian suggestion. (Wolberg, 1948b: 135)
