Research using positron emission tomography (PET) scans shows that the reason why hypnosis can alleviate pain is because it decreases the activity in areas of the brain involved in the experience of suffering. Scientists have found that hypnosis reduced the activity of the anterior cingulated cortex, an area known to be involved in pain. Frequently, physical pain, just like emotional pain, is due to painful feelings and emotions stored in the body.
