Welcome to The International Hypnosis Research Institute Web site. Our intention is to support and promote the further worldwide integration of comprehensive evidence-based research and clinical hypnotherapy with mainstream mental health, medicine, and coaching. We do so by disseminating, supporting, and conducting research, providing professional level education, advocating increased level of practitioner competency, and supporting the viability and success of clinical practitioners. Although currently over 80% of our membership is comprised of mental health practitioners, we fully recognize the role, support, involvement, and needs of those in the medical and coaching fields.

Full title: Effect of hypnosis on induction of local anaesthesia, pain perception, control of haemorrhage and anxiety during extraction of third molars: a case-control study.

This study sought to determine the efficacy of hypnosis on dental patients who had the third molars removed under hypnosis versus using a local anesthetic. 24 female and male volunteers were involved in this study. The results showed that hypnosis can effectively reduce anxiety, bleeding, and pain. Hypnosis was induced by either using gaze fixation or Chiasson's techniques. No information was given regarding suggestions, which may have been given during the study.
