Currently, only few patients significantly benefit from pharmacological treatments and many have to stop them because of negative side effects. Moreover, no medication or treatment addresses all aspects of chronic pain at once (i.e., sensations, emotions, behaviors, and cognitions), positioning chronic pain as an important public health issue and thus contributing to high health-care costs. Consequently, patients and health-care providers are increasingly turning to complementary non-pharmacological techniques such as hypnosis. Clinical research has demonstrated a decrease of pain perception, pain interference, depression and anxiety, and an increase in global quality of life when patients with chronic pain have benefited from hypnosis learning. Neuroimaging studies offer a possible explanation of these results by focusing on neural processes of pain modulation in chronic pain patients' brain. Studies conducted with chronic pain patients showed a modulation of pain matrix activity during hypnosis with a specific involvement of the anterior cingulate cortex (related to emotional and cognitive processing of pain). Therefore, hypnosis seems to act upon regions underlying emotion and cognition, with an influence on pain perception and emotional regulation. In this review, we propose to carry out a review of the recent literature on hypnosis in chronic pain management. A better understanding of the beneficial effects of hypnosis on chronic pain and its neurophysiology should enable more systematic use of this technique in the management of this complex health problem.</p>","PeriodicalId":46304,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis","volume":"64 1","pages":"62-80"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39600705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For some conditions, the claims are largely anecdotal, but the treatment of pain stands out in two ways. First, there is a strong body of evidence that hypnosis can produce clinically useful analgesic effects. Second, since innocuous pain can be induced in the laboratory, the process can be explored rigorously. This idea assumes that experimentally induced pain and clinical pain behave identically. We describe using experimentally induced pain in patients already suffering from temporomandibular disorders. Scanning results indicate that the pain and its amelioration are the same in the two circumstances. Moreover, the absence of any impact upon a nociceptive trigemino-facial reflex implies that the impact of hypnosis is purely cortical. Finally, we address the observation that clinical success correlates poorly with hypnotic susceptibility scores. It is proposed that a painful experimental situation induces anxiety. This, like hypnosis, has been associated with an emphasis on right hemisphere activity. Thus, clinical anxiety may render a person more responsive to hypnosis than would be indicated by a susceptibility test delivered in stress-free circumstances.</p>","PeriodicalId":46304,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis","volume":"64 1","pages":"12-19"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39600707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dan had been suffering with Parkinson’s Disease, and then in his weakened state he succumbed to colon cancer. He is survived by his wife Gretchen and two sons. He was the author or coauthor of 24 books. Dan received his undergraduate degree at the University of Massachusetts in molecular biology and his Ph.D. in Religion & Psychological Studies at the University of Chicago. He was awarded a Danforth Fellowship given for promise in teaching excellence, and as part of that fellowship received specialized training in how to teach. In graduate school, the famed hypnoanalyst Erika Fromm, Ph.D., served as his primary clinical mentor, a relationship that lasted for 35 years. Dr. Brown has taught hypnotherapy for close to 40 years. His books on hypnosis included the Hypnotherapy and Hypnoanalysis and Hypnosis and Behavioral Medicine, both coauthored with Erika Fromm and Creative Mastery in Hypnosis and Hypnoanalysis. While in graduate school in Chicago, he commuted to the University of Wisconsin, Madison, for parttime studies in the Buddhist studies program, where he learned Tibetan, Buddhist Sanskrit, and Pali. In his first clinical placement as a psychological clerk at Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago, he studied thought disorder in schizophrenics with Martin Harrow and selfpsychology with Heinz Kohut. He also commuted part time to The Menninger Foundation in Topeka, Kansas, where he did work with the staff of the children and adolescent units on the treatment of substance abuse. There, Karl Menninger, M. D. served as an important mentor. In the late 1970s, he moved back to his home state of Massachusetts where he did an internship at McLean Hospital and a Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Clinical Research at Harvard Medical School at The Cambridge Hospital. His research focused on the long-term effects of mindfulness meditation. In the 1980s Dr. Brown was the Director of Training and then Chief Psychologist at The Cambridge Hospital. There, he helped develop and gain accreditation for an APA-approved clinical psychology internship and post-doctoral training program. His vision was to provide the best young talent in psychology the opportunity to work with a disenfranchised inner city chronic mental health population, which included intensive developmentally informed psychotherapy for patients with major mental illness and complex trauma disorders. His program included intensive multicultural and bilingual mental health training. At the Cambridge Hospital, he developed and directed the Behavioral Medicine Program, a joint venture between psychiatry and primary care medicine. His book Hypnosis and Behavioral Medicine represents the clinical approaches developed in that program. He developed a special interest in psychoneuroimmunology and the psychosocial treatment of immune disorders.

The tool of measurement is HIP that calculated based on two methods of scoring (profile score and induction score). Results showed that the HIP scale is reliable. Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency was .90 and calculated test-retest reliability of Induction Scores and also the Profile Scores were .74 and .80. Agreement coefficient between the two examiners for both scoring methods (Profile Score and Induction Score) was calculated .79 and coefficient correlation for the two scoring methods was .85. Furthermore, factor analysis validity of the HIP scale showed that this scale is constructed by two factors, and derived factors explain 74.94% of the total variance. In general, results in this study present enough reliability for the HIP scale. Concepts of these findings for future studies are discussed.","PeriodicalId":46304,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis","volume":"65 1","pages":"136 - 145"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49420541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, we present preliminary evidence regarding the effects of the hypnosis sessions that use age progression suggestions compared to hypnosis sessions that provide different suggestions, as well as to sessions that did not include hypnotic procedures. Findings indicate that age progression suggestions for pain management with individuals participating in hypnosis treatment resulted in substantial immediate reductions in pain intensity, which were greater than pain reductions associated with treatments sessions providing pain education or cognitive therapy. In addition, age progression sessions provided to individuals receiving online hypnosis treatment for fatigue resulted in immediate large reductions in fatigue severity. Although the design of these two studies does not allow to report specific or long-term effects of the age progression techniques, findings indicate that including age progression suggestions to hypnosis protocols for pain and fatigue management is effective for reducing the immediate level of both symptoms. The development and continued evaluation of hypnotic interventions that increase or restore hope in, and optimism, for the future has the potential for enhancing the psychosocial well-being and quality of life of individuals with pain and fatigue.","PeriodicalId":46304,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis","volume":"65 1","pages":"45 - 59"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43048755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study adopted a three-arm randomized controlled trial design and achieved an effective sample size of 144. Self-reported psychological questionnaires were used to assess participants’ IBS symptom severity, health-related quality of life, and coping patterns at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and 3 months after intervention. The evaluation focused primarily on IBS symptom severity and health-related quality of life, as well as on the illness coping patterns of symptom catastrophizing and symptoms-related social hypervigilance. The findings showed that significant improvements in IBS symptom severity occurred in all three types of study groups immediately after completion of the intervention (p < .05, ηρ 2 = .20). However, only the traditional hypnotherapy groups and the Ericksonian hypnotherapy groups still had a notably significant decrease in symptoms 3 months after the intervention, whereas the educational talk groups had dropped back to pre-treatment symptom levels at the 3-month follow-up. The amplitude of change of symptom catastrophizing in the traditional hypnotherapy groups was stronger than that in the Ericksonian hypnotherapy groups after completion of the intervention, and the two types of hypnotherapy groups were significantly lower in symptom catastrophizing both immediately after the intervention and also 3 months post-intervention (p < .001, ηρ 2 = .17). The other coping mechanism studied, symptoms-related social hypervigilance, showed a significant decline only in the Ericksonian hypnotherapy groups (ps < .001, ηρ 2 = .45). Interestingly, in the traditional hypnotherapy groups, persons with higher hypnotic susceptibility showed significant improvement in symptom severity, health-related quality of life, and coping patterns following treatment. Notably, the effects from Ericksonian hypnotherapy for IBS diverged from the effects from traditional hypnotherapy. Finally, both Ericksonian hypnotherapy and traditional hypnotherapy appeared to have greater positive effects than educational talk did, but at different levels.","PeriodicalId":46304,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis","volume":"65 1","pages":"110 - 135"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46693054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
