While a few had headaches or dizziness, 25 of them reported feeling drunk or lethargic, which was not much different from the situation of students listening or taking the exam.

Hypnosis is not dangerous in itself, says psychologist Bruce N. Eimer. It can be a therapy tool, but like all tools, it can be damaged in the hands of unauthorized persons or improperly used.

Does a massage therapist apply acupressure to an 84-year-old patient with osteoporosis? Eimer asks. Probably not.

Similarly, it is not wise for a clinician to practice hypnosis without determining whether the patient is psychologically vulnerable.
