RESUMO
Introduction: Different types of hypnotherapy are being used, these days, to treat various clinical conditions. Hypnotherapy works by causing interaction of a subject with his subconscious, thus resulting in strengthening of will power, which drives each aspect of health and disease
Case Presentation: We discuss a case of a 30-year-old man, a tobacco paan and naswaar addict, counselled to quit this health devastating habit, and offered an incentive too, but in vain. He was then treated with hypnotherapy
Conclusion: Hypnotherapy can prove to be a useful tool for many conditions involving behavioral disturbances, particularly addiction. Further, hypnotherapy can be combined with medical treatment to enhance the therapeutic effectiveness
