Hypnotic Experiments in Psychosomatic Medicine

LEWIS R. WOLBERG M.D.1

1 Psychiatric Department, New York Medical College, Flower-Fifth Avenue Hospitals, New York City

A group of cases are presented in whom an unconscious conflict, deliberately or accidentally produced during hypnosis, created psychosomatic symptoms which could be traced directly to the conflict, and which disappeared when the conflict was resolved. Some of the symptoms were random physiological manifestations of tension and anxiety. Others were purposeful reactions which served a symbolic function as an expression of a conflict or as a defense against it.
