Hypnosis – Is it real and does it work

At last, it’s official. Hypnotism really does work – and it has an impact on the brain which can be measured scientifically, according to one of America’s leading psychiatrists.

David Spiegel, from Stanford University, told the prestigious American Association for the Advancement of Science that he had scanned the brains of volunteers who were told they were looking at coloured objects when, in fact, they were black and white. A scan showing areas of the brain used to register colour highlighted increased blood flow, indicating that the volunteers genuinely ‘saw’ colours, as they had been told they would. ‘This is scientific evidence that something happens in the brain when people are hypnotised that doesn’t happen ordinarily,’ Mr Spiegel told delegates.

He added that there were ‘tremendous medical implications’ and envisaged people being able to manage their own pain and anxiety.

Hypnotism has a genuine effect on the functioning of the mind, as well as the body.

Hypnotherapy and its effectiveness on Addictions and Anxiety successfully increases to 77% when applied by a specialist addiction Hypnotherapist and a 90.6% Success Rate for Smoking Cessation Using Hypnosis.
