  • Title: Pain as a biopsychosocial entity and its significance for treatment with hypnosis.
    Author: Wain HJ.
    Journal: Psychiatr Med; 1992; 10(1):101-17. PubMed ID: 1549746.
    Abstract:
    Pain is a subjective metaphorical experience. Effective treatment of the pain patient remains an enigma. The present paper considers and reviews the significance of pain from a biopsychosocial perspective. The need to understand and recognize the variables contributing to the biopsychosocial aspects of the pain patient and its use in creating an effective treatment strategy with hypnotic intervention is described. Case reports where several techniques as well as collaborative efforts with other specialties are presented to highlight the discussion.
