Although the effectiveness of the unconscious to restart the breast growth process is real, there is little media coverage which has published the results of numerous pieces of research that demonstrates it. In spite of scientific evidence on the possible influence of the mind on the body (see below for the development of neurosciences), the general opinion remains ill-informed*.

Here is a list of a few studies often published in scientific publications which are therefore peer-reviewed:

1 Scientific Research on Hypnotic Breast Enlargement 1 Peter H.C. Mutke, M.D. (UCLA) performed the first study. He presented his results as a research paper to the Department of Neuropsychiatry, University of California, Los Angeles, February 28, 1971. As of 1994, Dr Mutke was still with UCLA and has been active in the American Council of Hypnotist Examiners. 2 Williams, J.E., Stimulation of breast growth by hypnosis. His thirteen volunteers averaged 2.11 inch increase in the circumference of their breasts (2 cup sizes).

2 "Journal of Sex Research," 1974, 10:316-326. 3 Staib, A.R., and Logan, D.R., Hypnotic Stimulation of Breast Growth. They repeated Dr. Williams' results with similar results. They also found women's waist size decreased by 1.4 inches. Their follow up study showed that 81 % of the breast enlargement was retained several months after the women stopped their visual imagery.

3 "The American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis," 1977, 4:201-208. 4 Willard, R. D., Breast enlargement through visual imagery and hypnosis. Dr Willard used a different technique than Dr. Williams (who used age regression and age progression) and achieved an average 1.44 inch increase in breast size for his 22 volunteers. Every woman had an increase in their breast circumference.

4 "The American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis," 1977, 4:195-200. 5 Beran, Roy (a neurologist at Adelaide Children's Hospital, England) presented the results of his study to the February 1979 National Convention of Hypnotherapists in Adelaide. Dr. Beran showed that the breast volume (he measured the breast's cubic displacement of water) more than doubled during the three month hypnosis program.

Rossi (ed.), Hypnotic Alterations of Sensory, Perceptual and Psychophysical Processes. New York: Irvington Publishers, 1980. The journal articles by Erickson include fine measurements and process descriptions. Both simple suggestion imagery and analysis are found effective. Erickson, Milton H.

8 Elman, Dave. Elman reports in his audio recordings of trainings (1960s) he conducted for doctors that he had successfully worked with a number of women for breast enhancement. The method used was hypnoanalysis and results were typically two cup size increase.

10 Body Beautiful magazine in the UK reports on the case of a 32 year old woman who uses hypnosis to go from a 32A to a 32C in a period of six months.

11 In 2002, the BBC investigated researchers at the University of California who were conducting trials on breast increases. They found the results were very positive. Other studies have shown similar results dating back to the 1960's. Results are often seen of increases of at least one cup size. In one study of over 800 women, 80% saw gains of over one and a half inches in breast size.
