"Nothing comes from the magnetizer,
everything comes from the subject and
takes place in his imagination"
Started out as a Portugese-Goan monk, studied
Mesmer's work-thought it was,"entirely absurd" for
magnets to be a vital part of the process.
In the 18th century, a German doctor 'Franz Mesmer'
reintroduced healing therapy. His treatment included
manipulating the body, and Magnetism by using
magnets and suggestion.
Lucid Sleep
He saw himself as a 'concentrator'
by helping patients get ready to be
in trance
A concentration of the senses
produced by will and only
limited by internal freedom
Suggestion
Triggers the real and precise cause
by a natural effect, but can't be
produced by its own.
