Hypnotizability and Time Reproduction

Abstract Hypnotizability is a psychophysiological trait associated with structural variation in brain regions implicated in time perception, such as the cerebellum and the insula. This study investigated time reproduction across different interval durations in individuals with varying levels of hypnotizability. Forty healthy, right-handed participants of both sexes were assessed using the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale: …

Hypnotizability and interoception: Differential associations with accuracy, sensibility, and awareness

Abstract Prior research suggests differences in interoceptive processing across hypnotizability levels; however, the validity of previously used measures has been questioned, and how hypnotizability relates to different interoceptive dimensions remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the relationship between hypnotizability and three dimensions of interoception: accuracy (IA), sensibility (IS), and awareness (IAW). Forty-two healthy participants …

Do lažjega poroda s hipnozo: ‘Bila sem pod palmo in poslušala valovanje morja’ (24ur Vizita)

Medicinska hipnoza je priznana in učinkovita psihoterapevtska metoda, ki se vse pogosteje uporablja tudi pri pripravi na porod. Nosečnici omogoča globoko sprostitev, večje zaupanje vase in občutek nadzora v enem najbolj intenzivnih trenutkov življenja. Porod namreč pri številnih ženskah spremljajo strah pred bolečino in zapleti, slabe izkušnje iz preteklosti ali zgodbe drugih. Negativni občutki se …

Updating the physiology of hypnotizability: Cerebellum and insula

This chapter describes the physiological correlates of hypnotizability associated with the morpho-functional aspects of the cerebellum and insula, which are brain structures neglected in physiological research on hypnotizability. Both structures are involved in sensorimotor and interoceptive networks that play a cooperative role in sensorimotor and cognitive-emotional control. Hypnotizability-related cerebellar and insular characteristics may underlie observed …

Influence of Hypnosis and Acupuncture on Perioperative Complications

Abstract Background: This randomised, single-centre study and original research manuscript aimed to evaluate whether perioperative hypnosis and acupuncture can reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), opioid use, and other complications in spinal surgery compared to standard pharmacological management. Methods: In total, 60 patients undergoing spinal surgery were divided into three groups regarding antiemetic prevention: Hypnosis and …

Emotion regulation: The role of hypnotizability and interoception

Abstract Hypnotizability-related differences in interoception may be relevant to emotion regulation. The present study examined the relationships between hypnotizability, interoceptive sensibility (IS) and interoceptive accuracy (IA), and the use of cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression. One hundred and two healthy volunteers, assessed for hypnotizability, completed questionnaires assessing absorption, state anxiety, IS and emotion regulation. A …

Medicinska hipnoza (Radio Prvi)

Opuščanje kajenja, zdravljenje posledic travm, urjenje spomina in zbranosti … Pri vsem naštetem lahko pomaga tako imenovana medicinska hipnoza. Tudi pred kirurškimi in zobozdravstvenimi postopki. O tovrstni terapiji bomo govorili v sredinem Svetovalnem servisu. Kako teče postopek hipnoterapije, ali bomo v transu naredili tudi tisto, česar si v resnici ne želimo, in ali so rezultati …

Hipnoza – anestezija, sprostitev in terapija (24 ur Fokus)

Medicinska hipnoza v športu, pri porodu, za strahove, travme, samozavest, tudi operativne posege. Pri nas jo uporabljajo pri tako imenovanih budnih možganskih operacijah, da pacienta pomirijo, pripravijo na nujno sodelovanje. Tudi zobozdravniki pred pregledi in posegi. Gre za budno stanje, v katerem smo bolj dovzetni za sugestije in spremembe v razmišljanju in dojemanju. Avtorica prispevka: …

Zdravljenje plantarnih bradavic z medicinsko hipnozo: študija primera

V tej študiji primera opisujemo primer odraslega bolnika, ki se je več let spopadal z vztrajnimi bradavicami na podplatih. Po tem ko so bile izčrpane vse medicinske terapije, je bolnik kot zadnjo možnost izbral medicinsko hipnozo. Kljub letom neuspešnega zdravljenja s konvencionalnimi medicinskimi metodami je po treh seansah medicinske hipnoze prišlo do popolnega izginotja vseh …

The Role of Interoceptive Sensitivity and Hypnotizability in Motor Imagery

Motor imagery (MI) requires the mental representation of the body, obtained by integrating exteroceptive and interoceptive information. This study aimed to investigate the role of interoceptive sensitivity (IS) in MI performed through visual and kinesthetic modalities by participants with low (lows, N = 26; SHSS: A, M + SD: 1.00 + 1.52), medium (mediums, N = 11; SHSS: A, 6.00 + 0.77) …
