Hypnosis Sessions:

This presentation will elucidate the principles underlying hypnosis and provide some indications of how is can be used in a synergistic way with sedation and anaesthesia.  Issues of spontaneous trance, informed consent, and resistance, as well as its benefits for pain management will be discussed.

These are workshops, and as much time as possible will be devoted to practising the techniques discussed and demonstrated.
