While most people do not associate hypnosis with personality characteristics, there are some distinct traits that may contribute to hypnotisability. During hypnosis, two specific parts of the brain exhibit increased activity. These areas are responsible for controlling actions and processing body movements. Additionally, two distinct sections of the brain are altered during hypnosis. Interestingly, these changes in activity are distinct, but not at the level of the “Big Five” personality traits. Interestingly, hypnotisable people are more likely to be extroverts than introverts. While high-stability individuals may scream at a jump scare, low-functioning people are more likely to be introverts or neurotic.

The effects of hypnosis may vary depending on the type of pain you’re experiencing. Although most people can tolerate hypnosis without any negative side effects, it may not be a good choice for people with psychiatric conditions or serious addictions. If you have any psychiatric condition, you should see a psychiatrist before you consider hypnosis as a treatment. However, for people who have moderate or severe pain, hypnosis may be a viable option.

The power dynamic of hypnosis is hard to break apart. Many of the infamous stage hypnotists were criticized for their methods. This controversy fueled efforts to separate physicians from the stage hypnotists and legitimize their own work. Today, this controversy still lingers, and many academic researchers still maintain that lay hypnotism is dangerous. This reputation has slowed the widespread uptake of hypnosis in medicine, but the increasing body of research proves its clinical effectiveness. New insights reveal the mechanism in the brain that enables hypnosis.

While the research has yet to be replicated, many people believe that hypnosis is not an effective treatment. While hypnosis does not completely alleviate pain, it has been shown to significantly reduce post-surgical pain in kids. Furthermore, it has been shown to reduce the risk of post-operative pain. Hypnosis is a valuable supplement to standard medical care for pain management and has positive side effect profiles. For these reasons, investigators are starting to consider it a worthy first line pain treatment.

In addition to the medical use of hypnosis, it can also be used as a psychotherapy aid. By causing a deep relaxed state, hypnosis allows the patient to focus on suggestions while suspending their critical faculties. Therapeutic suggestions may include reducing the patient’s urge to smoke, turning down the pain level, or reaffirming their positive attributes. These suggestions can be repeated repeatedly throughout the patient’s life.

While the concept of hypnosis may seem mysterious, the science behind hypnosis has a long history. Hypnosis was first studied in the nineteenth century, when Baroness Hedwig von Zedlitz und Neukirch sought treatment for her abdominal pains. Czynski, known as a magnetic healer, allegedly used hypnosis to seduce the Baroness. Their marriage became an unholy affair and the story triggered a sensation of scandal among the German aristocracy.

While hypnosis apps may seem to be a good way to make hypnosis interventions more accessible to more people, it is important to keep in mind that they are not endorsed by professional organizations. Hypnosis apps have enormous potential and need to be developed as rigorously as face-to-face interventions. Therefore, clinical researchers need to develop guidelines to ensure the safety of these apps. While these apps have a long way to go, they are not yet ready for prime time.
