Abstract
Summary In September 1988, a Pain and Symptom Management Team was set up to offer hypnotherapy as part of the treatment of pain, discomfort and anxiety. Children are taught self‐hypnotherapy skills. Of the first 51 cases referred, 36 were taken on for hypnotherapy and after two to three sessions 29 were rated as improved or much improved. An account is given of the approach of the team and of some of the possible pitfalls.Keywords
