In the history of the development of medical and psychological procedures, hypnosis has played a prominent role, being a valuable clinical intervention in the treatment of a wide variety of problems. However, it has not been spared controversy and myths about its nature. In the present work we review the historical development of hypnosis and the most relevant explanatory models from those who consider it an altered state of consciousness to those who argue that hypnotic phenomena can be explained by the same variables as behavior and experience Not hypnotic. We also review some of the definitions that have emerged from the different paradigms, as well as the empirical evidence of their effectiveness, proving that when used as an adjunct to medical and psychological treatments increases their effectiveness, being of special relevance the relationship Of communication between clinician and patient. It ends with a review of its application in the field of sport and the presentation of a case study (3 athletes and 1 player) in which hypnosis is used adjuvant with other techniques. In all cases optimal results are achieved.
