Hypnosis has long been a controversial topic in the scientific community, but new research is shedding light on its effectiveness as a treatment for addiction.

According to a study published in the International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis, hypnosis has been found to be an effective treatment for patients with addictions.

The researchers studied patients with addiction—the majority of whom were addicted to alcohol or tobacco—and found that hypnosis improved their ability to quit smoking or drinking and significantly reduced their levels of stress.

It is thought that hypnosis works by reducing stress, which can then lower blood pressure and allow for better sleep, which leads to a higher quality of life.
