Love also makes reference to the fact that hypnosis has occasionally been used in the treatment of sexual problems and dysfunctions. Lady Izabelle, arguably the most infamous ‘hypnodomme’ (a BDSM dominatrix specializing in hypnotic sex play) and a practitioner of sexual hypnofetishism has written a number of online articles about the practice of hypnofetishism. Peter Masters, author of the book 'Look Into My Eyes: How to Use Hypnosis to Bring Out the Best In Your Sex Life' defines hypnofetishism as “the use of hypnosis or images of hypnosis, to cause or increase sexual arousal”. More recent online sources such as the 'Write World' website define hypnophilia as an ”abnormal affection towards sleep or of being hypnotized”. Anil Aggrawal (in his book 'Forensic and Medico-legal Aspects of Sexual Crimes and Unusual Sexual Practices') defines hypnophilia as being sexually aroused by the thought of sleeping (which for me suggests the condition is more akin to somnophilia which I wrote about in a previous blog). In collating material for this article, I came across a number of references to hypnophilia although most references to it are more concerned with sleep rather than hypnosis.
