Research, Articles, Books and
News Stories I want you to be a well-informed consumer. Many scholarly journals have published hundreds of peer-reviewed research and case studies on the efficacy of clinical hypnosis and related techniques. Some of the journals are American-based and others are well known international publications. All of these journals are available at medical school libraries and through legitimate on-line medical research sites. In addition to these clinical studies, many books have been published – by well known, legitimate publishers – about the medicinal uses of hypnosis. These are easily accessible through free public libraries, medical school libraries, university libraries, book stores and on-line book sellers. Below is a list of just some of just a few of these resources:

Consumer Articles Every day, people ask me this question: “If hypnosis is so effective, why don’t I read more about it in the press?” Well, the medical use of hypnosis is the subject of many newspaper and magazine stories in publications throughout the US. To the surprise of most people, articles of the subject have appeared in the following media outlets:
Time Magazine ... and many others Thousands of newspapers and magazines around the globe have covered this topic, as well. This isn’t surprising, as the clinical use of hypnosis is more commonly practiced in Canada, Europe, South America and Asia than in America. The reason: the US healthcare system is a “medication first” model. The rest of the world is more open to non-pharmaceutical treatments; this means medication is used secondarily, not primarily. NOTE: When reading consumer articles about medical hypnosis, keep in mind many terms are used interchangeably with hypnosis. These include: hypnotherapy, clinical hypnosis, medical hypnosis, therapeutic hypnosis, self-hypnosis, guided imagery and meditation.
