It was his student, Marquis Armand de Puysegur who discover the hypnotic trance, which he termed "Artificial Somnambulism," which he equated with spontaneous somnambulism from the natural sleep state. However, it was not until 1841, that Dr. James Braid coined the term hypnosis and uncovered that the success of Animal Magnetism was due to suggestion.
