Study Summary

The Osher Center for Integrative Medicine (OCIM) at Vanderbilt is a multidisciplinary outpatient clinic treating patients with chronic pain and complex health issues via integrative services, with goals of improving overall health and wellbeing of those served. At OCIM, clinical hypnosis has been historically provided on an individual basis by the investigator. Due to its impact and increased patient demand for this service, the investigator will be conducting group hypnosis services in addition to individual services order to expand the reach of this program to participants. As such, the investigators see this as a tremendous opportunity to contribute to clinical research to contribute to the evidence based for this form of service by examining participant-reported outcomes associated with completing the treatment. For this project, the investigators seek to assess the impact of a manualized group treatment protocol utilizing clinical hypnosis as a treatment for chronic pain. The investigators will be evaluating participant-reported outcomes to assess the feasibility of conducting hypnosis in this setting, impact of group hypnosis on pain and how participants' responsiveness to hypnosis impacts treatment outcome.

Primary Outcome

Brief Pain Inventory (severity scale only) is a 4-item subscale of the Brief Pain Inventory assessing the severity of pain over the past week. Questions inquire into an individual's worst, least, average, and current levels of pain on an 11-point likert scale, with 0 being no pain. It has been validated and is considered the gold standard to utilize in patient-reported outcomes studies. It takes \<1 minute to complete.
