Abstract
There is a long history of using hypnosis in treatment, and it is well known that various mysterious phenomena are generated. However, changes in physiology of the person in hypnosis are not well understood. In this study, we had the cooperation of Master Mudou IDE. He hypnotized a female subject T and we measured the physiology of the subject. The objective was to clarify what kind of influence hypnosis has on the Physiology. The result was that when the subject was hypnotized, we were able to show that abdominal respirations changed from normal condition, though these changes were not visible. In addition, we understood that there were two situations in which the blood flow either increased or decreased. Also, we understood it was related to the heart rate. We showed that these phenomena acted on the autonomous nervous system. In addition, we were able to show that brain activity decreased greatly when subject was hypnotized from the EEG measurements. When the subject was hypnotized, the hypnotist said to the subject as follows, "you breathe in cigarette smoke." Then the subject reacted. We understood that the subject reacted in the beta 1 region of the brain, and that the activity of the brain waves was greatly suppressed. In other words, it was understood that hypnosis not only could decrease brain activity and could also stimulate it.
