One of the problems that creates controversy is the wide variety of theories on hypnosis. The definitions of hypnosis are as varied as the definers. Dr. William Kroger states "Like the nature of human behavior, there will be different theories about hypnosis since all hypnotic phenomena have their counterpart in the various aspects of human behavior." The applications of hypnosis vary widely. Currently, two distinct applications of hypnosis include its use in entertainment and in health applications. The popular perception of the hypnotic experience is that of the entertainment version. The stage hypnotist uses a variety of methods to relax and focus the subjects eventually making it appear to the audience that the subject is asleep or, popularly termed, in trance. During the performance, the subjects seem to obey the commands of the hypnotist to do behaviors they might not normally choose to perform. |

Hypnosis has been practiced for thousands of years and
continues to be controversial. There is evidence that healing
trances were used in the healing temples of India. Ancient Egyptian
scrolls tell of the use of sleeping temples and the use of hypnotic
inductions for healing. Throughout history, hypnosis has been in
favor with the healing professions and has fallen out of favor as
many times.
