Is an Alpha brainwave state hypnosis?

There is a common confusion that hypnosis is about brainwaves. The likely reason is the confusion between hypnosis and trance. Especially since most hypnotists include suggestions for relaxation. There is a strong correlation between Alpha brainwaves and trance. Under hypnosis, a person can (once taught) create any of the basic brainwave patterns; Alpha, Beta, Delta, etc. which is generally not the case for trance.
