Les etudes en imagerie medicale ont aussi permis de decrire l’etat hypnotique comme un etat de conscience specifique qui le differencie des autres etats de conscience. Cet etat de conscience se definit surtout par un etat de permeabilite mentale, ou suggestibilite. Celle-ci est caracterisee par une capacite accrue a produire des changements souhaitables aux niveaux de la motivation, de l’habitude, du mode de vie, de la sante, la perception, et le comportement, ainsi qu’une modification des sensations physiques. L’hypnose interesse le kinesitherapeute dans la mesure qu’elle comporte un niveau de preuve plus important que bien d’autres des outils conventionnels utilises dans la kinesitherapie. Les techniques de base de l’hypnose sont les suivantes : l’entretien vise a securiser le patient, en eliminant toutes les idees fausses preconcues a propos de l’hypnose et creer une attente la plus positive possible ; la suggestion : c’est la technique la plus puissante de l’hypnose : suggestion directe, suggestion indirecte, suggestion post-hypnotique, autosuggestion ; l’induction : c’est le processus de passage d’etat d’eveil habituel vers l’etat hypnotique ; la visualisation consiste a vivre virtuellement un evenement precis propose par le therapeute. Elle est recemment et frequemment utilisee par les kinesitherapeutes dans la reeducation en traumatologie, rhumatologie et neurologie, ou efficacite est amelioree par l’usage de l’hypnose. L’hypnose agit au niveau du subconscient, le siege des emotions, des habitudes et des automatismes. Le subconscient transmet la commande a l’inconscient qui a son tour traduira ces emotions en reactions somatiques. En parallele, la neurophysiologie des suggestions hypnotiques est actuellement bien definie, ainsi que celle de la permeabilite cerebrale qui est associee a l’augmentation du debit sanguin cerebral regional au niveau du systeme attentionnel du cerveau. D’autre part, l’attente positive et l’appellation de « l’hypnose » semblent avoir des effets remarquables sur l’efficacite de la procedure. Les etudes cliniques ont demontre une efficacite sur les douleurs en generales, les cephalees de tension et la migraine, les douleurs temporo-mandibulaires, la lombalgie chronique, l’arthrose et les douleurs osteo-articulaires, le syndrome douloureux regional, la fibromyalgie, les douleurs du membre fantome, la reeducation sportive, la colopathie fonctionnelle, le stress et l’anxiete, et bien d’autres pathologies. L’hypnose est un outil puissant et utile pour la pratique quotidienne des kinesitherapeutes. Niveau de preuve NA.

Imaging studies further enabled the hypnotic state to be described as a specific state of consciousness, differentiating it from other states of consciousness. This state of consciousness is primarily characterized by a state of mental permeability or suggestibility, showing an increased ability to produce desirable changes in motivation, habits, lifestyle, health, perception and behavior as well as modifying physical sensation. Its usefulness is interesting for physiotherapists since hypnosis has higher levels of evidence than many other conventional tools used in physiotherapy. The basic techniques of hypnosis are: the interview which seeks to put the patient at ease, eliminating all preconceived misconceptions about hypnosis and creating treatment expectations that are as positive as possible; suggestion which is the most powerful technique in hypnosis: direct suggestion, indirect suggestion, post-hypnotic suggestion, and self-suggestion; induction which is the process of transition from the usual waking state to the hypnotic state; visualization which consists in a virtual experience of a specific event proposed by the therapist. It is often used by physiotherapists in traumatologic, rheumatologic and neurologic rehabilitation, where efficacy is improved by hypnosis. Hypnosis affects the subconscious, which is the center of emotions, habits and automatisms. The subconscious transmits commands to the unconscious mind, which in return translates these emotions into somatic feelings and reactions. In parallel, the neurophysiology of hypnotic suggestion is currently well-defined, as is the brain permeability associated with increased regional cerebral blood flow in the attentional system of the brain. Furthermore, positive expectation and labeling of “hypnosis” seem to have remarkable effects on the efficacy of the procedure. Clinical randomized controlled studies have shown efficacy on pain in general, tension headache and migraine, temporomandibular pain, chronic low back pain, osteoarthritis and bone and joint pain, fibromyalgia, regional pain syndrome, phantom limb pain, sports rehabilitation, irritable bowl syndrome, stress and anxiety, and many other pathologies. Hypnosis is a powerful and very useful tool in everyday physiotherapy. Level of evidence NA.
