The latest studies on Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBS) demonstrate the efficacy of hypnosis, as a therapy for this type of disorder, for the 89% of patients. The aim of this article is to consider the possible clinical application of an hypnotic protocol for IBS After a brief introduction of the North Carolina Protocol (Palsson, 2006), one of the most employed for IBS, and of the results of the studies conducted to verify the efficacy of the protocol, the authors present an example of how this protocol can be adapted to a clinical situation. A case from the clinical experience of the authors is presented.
