Mesmerism Article
The origins of modern hypnosis began over two centuries ago in Switzerland. In Klosters, in the east of Switzerland, not far from the Austrian border, lived a Roman Catholic priest by the name of Father Gassner, who discovered in 1770 that he possessed the power to heal and began practicing faith cures.
Hundreds of afflicted men and women, "possessed of devils" according to the previous belief system of witchcraft, came to Klosters to be healed. Father Gassner, dressed in black robes, would make his appearance before groups of them and hold up a crucifix, which he lowered to touch each of them in turn.
