Hypnosis Research

Thousands of research studies have been published in peer-reviewed medical journals that support hypnosis as an effective intervention for mind-body healing. We're currently undergoing a project to analyze these studies and summarize our findings to you.

Comparison with psychoanalysis and behaviour therapy

In 1970, Alfred A. Barrios, Ph.D. conducted a survey of scientific literature to compare recovery rates for various modalities of therapy:

  • Psychoanalysis can be expected to have a 38% recovery rate after approximately 600 sessions.
  • Behaviour therapy (Wolpian) can be expected to have a 72% recovery rate after an average of 22 sessions.
  • Hypnotherapy can be expected to have a 93% recovery rate after an average of 6 sessions
