A Mind-Body Intervention for Hot Flash Management

The long-term goal of this program of research is to determine safe and effective non-hormonal interventions for menopausal symptoms. The main goal of this study is to evaluate whether self-administered hypnosis can be used to significantly reduce hot flashes more than self-administered white noise hypnosis over 6 weeks of home practice. The investigators are also examining the impact of each hypnosis group on sleep, anxiety, perceived and measured stress, heart rate variability, and daily activities.
