It’s funny that you bring this up because yesterday I was looking at an Igros Moshe and I came across a tshuva where someone asked R’ Moshe zatzal if it’s it’s muttar to go to a doctor to be healed through hypnotism. R’ Moshe answered that there’s no issur involved, it’s not an act of kishuf. However if the doctor isn’t a shomer Torah U’mitzvos, then you would be choshed him on an aveira and you shouldn’t go to him. If he’s a shomer Torah U’mitzvos then it’s muttar to go to him. It sounds like that there is such a concept that hypnotism exists.
