Hypnosis for breast enlargement

Hello. I am attempting to convince a hypnotherapist to apply for the JREF challenge with the claim that hypnosis can increase breast size.

Is there a general sense of whether or not there could be a testable claim here?

Thanks.

It's testable. It will take more time to test than most claims. I don't know under what conditions JREF would accept such a test, since exercise and hormonal changes can affect size (of course, hypnosis can affect hormones -- or so it is claimed). It should include a number of women of a full range of ages -- over at least a month -- with multiple sessions of (probably individual) hypnotic suggestion. IMO, it doesn't meet the JREF criteria, but I don't make that decision. I hope the hypnotherapist you're talking with knows their stuff and that JREF can accomodate such a test. But, I think they will lose the million if they accept with reasonable terms and a knowledgeable hypnotist. I believe Erickson has published case studies of increasing breast size in underdeveloped young women (20's) with hypnosis.
 
I went to a hypnotist to get my youknowwhat enlarged. All I got for my three hundred dollars was the hypnotic suggestion that my hands were smaller! What a rip!
 
I can imagine a session now:

"Close your eyes. Relax. Focus on your breasts. Begin to feel a warm sensation in your breasts. Feel the blood circulating though your breasts. Now, you will feel a sensation like someone is touching your breasts, but don't open your eyes. Just relax, and feel the touching. If the touching starts to feel like rubbing, relax more. Keep your eyes closed. See your breasts enlarging with every stroke. Visualize, visualize.

OK, open your eyes. WOW! I can see the difference already! That will be $300 please"
 
Scientific Research on Hypnotic Breast Enlargement

1. Peter H.C. Mutke, M.D. (UCLA) performed the first study. He presented his results as a research paper to the Department of Neuropsychiatry, University of California, Los Angeles, February 28, 1971. As of 1994, Dr Mutke was still with UCLA and has been active in the American Council of Hypnotist Examiners.

2. Williams, J.E., Stimulation of breast growth by hypnosis. "Journal of Sex Research," 1974, 10:316-326. His thirteen volunteers averaged 2.11 inch increase in the circumference of their breasts (2 cup sizes).

3. Staib, A.R., and Logan, D.R., Hypnotic Stimulation of Breast Growth. "The American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis," 1977, 4:201-208. They repeated Dr. Williams' results with similar results. They also found women's waist size decreased by 1.4 inches. Their follow up study showed that 81 % of the breast enlargement was retained several months after the women stopped their visual imagery.

4. Willard, R. D., Breast enlargement through visual imagery and hypnosis. "The American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis," 1977, 4:195-200. Dr Willard used a different technique than Dr. Williams (who used age regression and age progression) and achieved an average 1.44 inch increase in breast size for his 22 volunteers. Every woman had an increase in their breast circumference.

5. Wilson, Donald L. MD, "Natural Bust Enlargement With Total Mind Power" How to use the other 90% of your brain to increase the size of your breasts. 1979 Book. Has the scripts and a great bibliography. Dr Wilson ran a clinic in California with great success. This book (a small hardback) is available thru Hypnosis Institute of Texas for US$12.95 plus $4.95 shipping and handling.

6. Beran, Roy (a neurologist at Adelaide Children's Hospital, England) presented the results of his study to the February 1979 National Convention of Hypnotherapists in Adelaide. Dr. Beran showed that the breast volume (he measured the breast's cubic displacement of water) more than doubled during the three month hypnosis program.

Excerpt of the RESULTS section of the Willard study:
At the end of 12 weeks, 28% had reached the goal they had set at the beginning of the program and desired no further enlargement. There were 85% who could tell a significant enlargement in their breasts had been accomplished, and 46% found it necessary to buy a larger brassiere. Forty-two percent had a loss in weight of greater than 4 pounds and still had enlargement of their breasts. The average increase in circumference was 1.37 inches; the average increase in the vertical measurement was 0.67 inches and the average increase in horizontal measurement was 1.01 inches.... [note: the study was continued past 12 weeks to let those who hadn't reach their goals to do so.}

In this study, 63% of the subjects had had children and complained of pendulous breasts. These subjects expressed a desire to reclaim the fullness and contour of the breasts which they had before the pregnancies. All of these subjects reported they were very pleased with the increase in fullness and firmness of their breasts at the end of the study....
The only two subjects who subjectively felt there had been no significant increase, did have a measurable increase in size. Both subjects had difficulty obtaining the visualizations. All of the subjects reported an increase in firmness of their breasts. All of the subjects who began the study with one breast smaller than the other found them to be equal in size at the end of the twelve weeks.

In a sense it should be easier to enlarge youknowwhat with hypnosis because relaxation helps the process of engorgement. Did you get a tape of the hypnosis session so that you could listen to it over and over again? Single session should not be expected to work for most people - it should require repetition for at least a month.

Of course, it should be more difficult to measure the size of youknowwhat, since the extent of extension often depends on immediate conditions.
 
Usually I'm skeptical of such things.

Here, I'm willing to make an exception. I think a billion dollar grant would make the world a better place. The benefits clearly outweigh the risks of failure.
