Hypnotic treatment in severe chronic diseases, for pain and symptoms relief, has proven efficacy as adjuvant therapy, and should be offered to any individual, who expresses an interest in this method. While some theorize hypnotizability as a changing attribute of the individual, there is a growing body of literature that indicates hypnotizability may be characterized as a constellation of potentially modifiable attitudes and skills, which are strongly influenced by related factors, as suffering, in severe chronic diseases. In this article, I briefly review representative studies recognizing how clinical hypnosis in medicine is an effective complementary therapy, for pain and symptom's relief in severe chronic diseases and in palliative care. This paper highlights: (I) a scientific review to underline how clinical hypnosis has an important impact on the treatment goals and integration in relieving pain and symptoms; (II) the advanced techniques for effectively relieving pain and symptoms.
催眠疗法用于严重慢性疾病，以缓解疼痛和症状，已被证明作为辅助疗法具有疗效，应提供给任何对该方法感兴趣的个体。虽然有些人将催眠易感性理论化为个体的一种可变属性，但越来越多的文献表明，催眠易感性可能被描述为一系列潜在可改变的态度和技能，在严重慢性疾病中，这些态度和技能受到诸如痛苦等相关因素的强烈影响。在本文中，我简要回顾了一些代表性研究，这些研究认识到医学中的临床催眠如何成为一种有效的辅助疗法，用于缓解严重慢性疾病和姑息治疗中的疼痛及症状。本文强调：（I）一项科学综述，以强调临床催眠如何对缓解疼痛和症状的治疗目标及整合产生重要影响；（II）有效缓解疼痛和症状的先进技术。
