Randomized Controlled TrialEfficacy of Self-Hypnosis in Pain Management in Female Patients with Multiple Sclerosis.
Pain is common in patients with multiple sclerosis. This study evaluated self-hypnosis for pain control in that population. ⋯ Repeated-measures analysis showed a significant difference between the groups; pain was lower in the self-hypnosis group but was not maintained after 4 weeks. Self-hypnosis could effectively decrease the intensity and could modify quality of pain in female patients with multiple sclerosis.
