Phase 2 — Testing in a bigger group (up to a few hundred people) to see if the treatment actually works and is still safe.
This trial is testing whether medical hypnosis, combined with relaxing music, can help calm anxiety in patients undergoing radiation therapy for cancer. Some patients will receive music listening alone, while others will receive music listening plus guided hypnosis sessions. The goal is to see if adding hypnosis makes a real difference in helping people feel less anxious during treatment.
Radiation therapy can make people very anxious, and current calming methods like music may not be enough for everyone. This study explores whether hypnosis could be a helpful, safe addition to standard anxiety relief during cancer treatment.

You will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one receiving music listening during your radiation sessions, and the other receiving music listening plus guided hypnosis. You will be followed for 2 months during your radiation treatment, with regular check-ins to measure your anxiety levels and how well the treatment is working. The hypnosis sessions will be conducted by a trained professional during or alongside your radiation appointments.
