Scientific Evidence and Newspaper Articles Re: Hypnosis

Two Recent and Historic Events for Hypnotherapy:

The recent publication of a study by the Harvard Women’s Health Watch, as announced on WCAX-TV earlier this month, which found “that patients who are hypnotized before surgery require less sedation and experience less pain.”


The first-time participation of hypnotherapists in Pain Week in September 2007. Pain Week is the annual conference of the American Society of Pain Educators, where hypnotherapists shared their expertise in relieving chronic pain.

Scientific Studies with Chronic Disease

The last time I went to the National Insitutes of Health (NIH) web site, a search on the word 'hypnosis' came up with 388 entries, including papers, speakers, and clinical trials reports. When I searched for 'hypnosis clinical trials,' 256 entries were listed.

Go to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) web site.

Once there,use their search function to explore all the different research being done at the NIH and the National Cancer Institute, and other health care research clinics, as well. There's LOTS of data; so don't let them tell you hypnosis is an unknown in medical contexts. Show them this link.
