Abstract
Nausea and vomiting in anticipation of chemotherapy often develop in patients undergoing cancer treatment. In this study, deep muscle relaxation hypnosis controlled these conditioned reactions in 6 female patients (aged 24-56 yrs). Anticipatory emesis recurred when hypnosis was not used. During subsequent sessions in which hypnosis was reinstated, anticipatory emesis was again controlled. (18 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved).
