Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a type of mind-body intervention in which hypnosis is used to create a state of focused attention and increased suggestibility in the treatment of a medical or psychological disorder or concern. Despite being popularized by 17th and 18th century psychologists such as James Braid and Milton H. Erickson, aspects of hypnotherapy has taken many forms and been utilized across cultures.[1][2]

Hypnotherapy Across Cultures [ADDED]
Shamanism
Many similarities can be drawn between hypnotherapy and Shamanism: for instance, both practices utilize the unconscious mind and imagination.[3] In fact, some of the earliest documentations of hypnosis, a main aspect of hypnotherapy, can be traced back to native shamans.[1] Both of these practices operate with the intent to help someone solve issues and grow.[3]
Aikido
Aikido is a Japanese martial art that shares some similarities with hypnotherapy. One of the interesting similarities between Ericksonian hypnotherapy and Aikido is that both Erickson and the creator of Aikido were frequently ill in their childhoods. Aikido’s centering technique displays qualities similar to that of hypnosis such as: relaxation, deep breathing, increased self perception and awareness.[2]
Uses[ADDED]
Anxiety Disorders [edit]
Hypnotherapy demonstrates comparable efficacy to other forms of therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, that utilize relaxation techniques and imagery.[4] It has also shown to be successful when used to reduce anxiety in those with dental anxiety and phobias.[5] (IN ARTICLE)
PTSD
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and its symptoms have been show to improve due to implementation of hypnotherapy, in both long and short term.[6] As research continues, hypnotherapy is being more openly considered as an effective intervention for those with PTSD.[7]
Depression
Hypnotherapy has been show to be effective when used to treat long term depressive symptoms. It has show to be comparable to the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy, and when used in tandem, efficacy seems to increase.[8]
Efficacy[ADDED]
- A 2003 meta-analysis on the efficacy of hypnotherapy concluded that "the efficacy of hypnosis is not verified for a considerable part of the spectrum of psychotherapeutic practice."
- ...
- A 2014 meta-analysis that focused on hypnotherapy's efficacy on irritable bowel syndrome found that it was beneficial for short term abdominal pain and other gastrointestinal issues.[9] (IN ARTICILE)
- ...
- In a 2022 meta-analysis on hypnotherapy's efficacy on dental anxiety, it was found that "hypnosis can also be regarded as powerful and successful method for anxiety reduction," but also stated that further research is required.[5] (IN ARTICLE)
Occupational accreditation[ADDED]
Australia[edit]
Professional hypnotherapy and use of the occupational titles hypnotherapist or clinical hypnotherapist are not government-regulated in Australia.
In 1996, as a result of a three-year research project led by Lindsay B. Yeates, the Australian Hypnotherapists Association (IN ARTICLE)(founded in 1949),

Summary Statement:
Due to the suggestions from my peers I have created an introductory section in my sandbox and added to the lead section of the article (Denisej 2). I have also cleared up some of my wording in the Shamanism section to make it clearly related to hypnotherapy (Denisej 2). I have also added a bit more context on what Aikido is but I did not put in too much description so as to not distract from the article as a whole. However, Aikido has been linked to its own Wikipedia page (Hkhan11). I have also added other psychiatric disorders that hypnotherapy can treat effectively: PTSD and Depression (Hkhan11). Some of the peer suggestions such as cutting more information from the original article, adding in a graphic about aikido, and adding in more forms of hypnotherapy I felt were unnecessary. I believe all the information in the original article to be relevant (Birmaniahern). Adding a graphic about Aikido I believe would distract from the topic of the article (Hkhan11). And the original article already covers many different forms of hypnotherapy, and I don’t feel more need to be added and covered (Hkhan11).
