Sumario:This work seeks to offer, by means of the semiotic concept of iconicity, an explanatory proposition in order to understand the relationship between hypnosis and chronic pain. It considers hypnosis as a set of processes involving communication and trance experience. Employing a brief clinical excerpt, it emphasizes iconicity in hypnotic communication, as a process based mainly on the consideration of the other, the clinic of showing and the experience of the present. On the other hand, regarding the trance experience, the work stresses the iconicity present in the relations with the self-image and the corporal scheme of the subject, consisting of complex semiotic systems in which the chronic pains are set. The conclusion highlights the proximity between iconicity and alterity, especially with respect to the role of the protagonists of the therapeutic relationship in hypnosis.
