• The Science of Hypnosis – fMRI & EEG Studies

  

  Recent brain imaging studies using fMRI and EEG confirm that hypnosis creates measurable changes in brain function. These include reduced cognitive control, enhanced mind-body communication, and decreased self-criticism. Such changes validate hypnosis as a distinct brain state—beyond simple relaxation or placebo—and explain its effectiveness in pain relief, behavioral change, and emotional healing.
