En 2014, investigadores de la Universidad de Washington revisaron ensayos clínicos recientes sobre estudios de hipnosis para el manejo del dolor y descubrieron que la hipnosis es eficaz para reducir el dolor crónico. Concluyen que: “El manejo del dolor crónico sigue siendo uno de los mayores desafíos en la atención médica, y la hipnosis es una intervención no desarrollada pero muy prometedora que puede ayudar a abordar este problema”.
En 2015, investigadores de la Universidad de Roma revisaron estudios de neuroimagen funcional centrados en la percepción del dolor bajo hipnosis, que respaldaron el uso clínico de la hipnosis en el tratamiento de las condiciones de dolor.
Hypnotic Approaches for Chronic Pain Management: Clinical Implications of Recent Research Findings
Abstract: The empirical support for hypnosis for chronic pain management has flourished over the past two decades. Clinical trials show that hypnosis is effective for reducing chronic pain, although outcomes vary between individuals. The findings from these clinical trials also show that hypnotic treatments have a number of positive effects beyond pain control. Neurophysiological studies reveal that hypnotic analgesia has clear effects on brain and spinal-cord functioning that differ as a function of the specific hypnotic suggestions made, providing further evidence for the specific effects of hypnosis. The research results have important implications for how clinicians can help their clients experience maximum benefits from hypnosis and treatments that include hypnotic components.

Pain Perception and Hypnosis: Findings from Recent Functional Neuroimaging Studies
Hypnosis modulates pain perception and tolerance by affecting cortical and subcortical activity in brain regions involved in these processes. By reviewing functional neuroimaging studies focusing on pain perception under hypnosis, the authors aimed to identify brain activation-deactivation patterns occurring in hypnosis-modulated pain conditions. Different changes in brain functionality occurred throughout all components of the pain network and other brain areas. The anterior cingulate cortex appears to be central in modulating pain circuitry activity under hypnosis. Most studies also showed that the neural functions of the prefrontal, insular, and somatosensory cortices are consistently modified during hypnosis-modulated pain conditions. Functional neuroimaging studies support the clinical use of hypnosis in the management of pain conditions.
