Articles on Hypnosis and IBS:

1.   IBShypnosis.com is the most informative online resource I've found about IBS and hypnosis.  It was created and is maintained by Dr. Olafur Palsson from the University of North Carolina, whose protocol I use.   In addition to general information,  it has an excellent list of research studies the results of which strongly support hypnosis as an effective treatment option.  It also has an informative 21-minute video.
