The manual is aimed at therapists who have completed hypnosis training and work with chronic pain patients. It offers a comprehensive collection of pain-specific primings, intervention texts, and suggestions for post-hypnotic suggestions that are suitable for practical application. The topics include hypnotherapeutic pain diagnostics, problem-oriented techniques, as well as symptom-oriented techniques for accepting pain, distracting from pain, and immediate pain alteration.
