Chronic pain can affect every aspect of life — from sleep and mood to work and relationships. In this informative and reassuring talk, John Black explores how hypnosis can be a powerful complementary approach to managing pain by working with the mind-body connection.
Drawing on research and clinical experience, John explains how pain is not only a physical sensation but also a neurological and psychological experience shaped by perception, attention, and emotional state. He demystifies hypnosis, showing how focused attention and guided suggestion can help reduce the intensity of pain signals, ease muscular tension, and calm the nervous system.
Attendees will learn how stress and anxiety can amplify discomfort — and how hypnotic techniques can help retrain the brain’s response to pain. John introduces practical tools such as guided imagery, relaxation strategies, and cognitive reframing to help individuals regain a sense of control and improve quality of life.
This talk highlights how hypnosis can work alongside healthcare to support comfort and resilience. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of how the mind influences pain — and how harnessing that connection can open the door to relief, empowerment, and renewed wellbeing.
