What moral and ethical guidelines are there to stage hypnotism?
A stage hypnotist has a great responsibility to his volunteers on stage. They basically are his guests and are the most important people in the room for without them there is no show. Each one is an individual with a unique personality and should be treated as so. They are all strangers to the hypnotist and as a result he has both a moral and ethical responsibility to see that he/she protects them from any physical harm or undue mental stress.
