Description
Intervention group: Hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapy will be performed in three sessions of 20 minutes for the experimental group individually.In the first session, hypnotherapy is introduced as a safe and uncomplicated medical treatment and also indoctrination test is performed. At the end of the first session, a light ecstasy and simple relaxation are given to the subjects.In the second session, various techniques are used to enter the trance, and following the involuntary closing of the eyes, inductions related to muscle relaxation and deepening techniques will be performed, and analgesia will begin. In the hypnosis phase, conditioning is done and they learn how to be able to anesthetize their desired areas. In the third session, trance practice and self-hypnotherapy will be performed and more deepening techniques will be used and people will be conditioned to fall into ecstasy when hearing dysmenorrhea by listening to the researcher's instincts and immediately anesthetize their desired points. After these steps, with the onset of dysmenorrhea, the subjects will be able to enter the trance and begin analgesia by listening to the researcher's hypnotherapy.
