Summary

This study tested whether hypnosis sessions led by a nurse over video call are practical for people with long-term nerve pain. Thirty adults with peripheral neuropathic pain for over a year took part. The goal was to see if patients would complete five sessions and if it helped with pain and anxiety.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
hypnosis sessions
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a convenient, non-drug option to help manage chronic nerve pain and reduce psychological distress.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study (30 people) with no control group for efficacy, so results may not be generalizable or show clear pain relief.
