AI overview

I cannot write an accurate overview based solely on the context provided, as it contains only image captions and dates with no substantive information about what hypnosis is or why it matters. To provide an accurate and neutral explanation, I would need actual descriptive text about hypnosis.

AI-generated from the Wikipedia summary — may contain errors.
