Medscape Today - Pain is a physical, emotional and psychological phenomenon. Hypnosis is one of the oldest and most documented psychological interventions for pain management and suffering. It is obvious that persons who are hypnotized report changes in the way they feel, think, and behave.

American Pain Foundation - Hypnosis is a widely practiced and time-tested method for managing pain. There are several possible ways that hypnosis could work to block, reduce, or eliminate pain. One is that hypnosis decreases the amount of pain signal that gets sent to the brain. Another way that hypnosis may work is that it redirects one's attention to something other than the pain. Still another way is that hypnosis may help our mind to know that the pain is there, but not to feel it.
