hypnosis recommended to curb symptoms of menopause (North American Menopause Society) 

'(...) randomized, controlled trials of clinical hypnosis demonstrated the approach was significantly better than a "structured attention" therapy approach in postmenopausal women with frequent hot flashes and significantly better than no treatment in breast cancer survivors.'

'Randomized, double-blind, controlled trials--the gold standard for determining therapies' effectiveness--showed that a cognitive-behavioral therapy approach that combined relaxation techniques, sleep hygiene, and learning to take positive, healthy approaches to menopause challenges was significantly effective in reducing women's ratings of hot flash problems (although not their number).'

 'The [North America Menopause Society(NAMS) ] panel recommends these two mind-body approaches.' See report here
