This is literally the worst Wikipedia article I ve ever read I am a professional practicing Recreation Hypnotist My business license actually states Recreational Hypnosis Non Medical and Non Therapeutic Recreational Hypnosis has nothing to do with erotic hypnosis nor with any fetish To equate them here on such a public forum diminishes my profession This entire article needs to be deleted and started over with no references to sex To say the terms recreational hypnosis and erotic hypnosis are synonyms is just appalling I will continue to delete major portions of this article to protect my profession Hypnosis used to treat anything which can be medically diagnosed like sexual dysfunction immediately becomes hypnotherapy
