Research by derbyshire et al. (2003) hofbauer et al. showed that hypnotic suggestion brings changes in the somatosensory cortex for changing the sensory component of pain.
A suggestion delivered to a subject beyond its voluntary control and is part of hypnosis treatment is called a hypnotic suggestion. Patients experience compelling behaviors through strong attention and suggestion.
The somatosensory cortex is responsible for sensations like touch, pressure, temperature, and pain. It receives and process such sensation in our whole body. It lies in the postcentral gyrus of the parietal lobe.
We can treat pain by treating the incoming information about pain to the somatosensory cortex. The pain sensation is experienced by sending nerve signals to the spinal cord and brain for its processing.
