Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is probably the least conventional of panic attack treatments, but it’s not total nonsense. Hypnosis has been used in a therapeutic context at least as far back as Sigmund Freud and still has subtle traces in more traditional psychotherapy in the form of psychoanalysis, age regression, and vivification. Practitioners of hypnotherapy do not necessarily believe that hypnosis itself is an effective panic attack treatment, rather that patients are more receptive to other forms of therapy when in a hypnotic trance. Hypnotherapy seems to work well with phobias and general anxiety.
