looking at acupuncture, the strongest predictor variable for subsequent pain
control via acupuncture was belief, and the strength of that belief that
that method would work for you.
I found similar results with people who were inexperienced and untrained in
hypnotic pain control. Until they had the experience in hypnosis, and what
it could do, only their beliefs (or a placebo effect) was a fairly
reasonable predictor of how much pain reduction they experienced.
