Children’s and Their Parents’ Experiences With Home-Based Guided Hypnotherapy: Qualitative Study

Children’s and Their Parents’ Experiences With Home-Based Guided Hypnotherapy: Qualitative Study

With hypnotherapy, a patient is induced into a hypnotic state and guided to suggestions by a therapist or by listening to audio-recorded exercises in their home environment (ie, home-based guided hypnotherapy) [13,14]. Home-based guided hypnotherapy is promising in primary care because of its accessibility [15]. Very few mild to moderate side effects of hypnotherapy are reported [16], and the fact that children can do it by themselves without involvement of others makes primary care an interesting setting.

User Outcomes for an App-Delivered Hypnosis Intervention for Menopausal Hot Flashes: Retrospective Analysis

User Outcomes for an App-Delivered Hypnosis Intervention for Menopausal Hot Flashes: Retrospective Analysis

However, face-to-face hypnotherapy for hot flashes has limited accessibility for many women. Challenges such as financial concerns, a lack of proximity to a hypnotherapist, or the time commitment needed for appointments may all factor into women being unable to access hypnotherapy [23,24]. A smartphone app-delivered hypnotherapy intervention for menopausal hot flashes can help overcome these intervention implementation barriers.

Characteristics of Users of a Digital Hypnotherapy Intervention for Hot Flashes: Retrospective Study

Hypnotherapy, the use of hypnosis for a medical disorder or concern, has been shown to be effective in reducing hot flashes [14,15]. In a clinical trial that examined the efficacy of hypnotherapy for reducing hot flashes among breast cancer survivors, it was found that hypnotherapy reduced hot flashes by approximately 68% from baseline to intervention end point and this was significantly greater than controls [14].
