Term: hypnotherapy

DEFINITIONS

Hypnotherapy: The use of hypnosis combined with techniques such as suggestion and metaphor to help a person achieve behavioral changes. It should be noted that a person trained in how to hypnotize others—a skill that is relatively easy to learn—can quickly hypnotize most people.

Hypnotherapy:

The use of hypnosis for therapeutic purposes.
