Trepanation works under the theory that by creating a hole in the skull, brain blood volume is changed and brain function is enhanced, creating a "permanent high" or enlightenment of sorts. While trepanation has a number of very convincing advocates, the vast majority—including many people who have gone through the procedure—hold that it is primarily a placebo effect.
