Try it, if it works then keep doing it. Not all treatments work for everyone. It's up to you and your medical providers to determine a treatment plan that works for you.

Hypnosis is not likely to eliminate chronic pain completely, but it can be a useful coping tool in helping to manage the pain better.

I don't have any particular experience with hypnosis and chronic pain but I have heard that it has been helpful for other people I know. More or less as a distraction but not a cure. Hypnosis works in the sense of making you concentrate on something else when you are feeling the pain at a high intensity. I find it more helpful to take a warm bath. Hypnosis works in a sense to help you concentrate on something other the pain and helps you form another habit instead of focusing on the pain itslef. Try using breathing as a coping mechanism
