Schultz developed autogenic therapy, a relaxation technique, in the 1920s, a practice that he outlined in his 1932 book, Autogenic Training. 

Schultz showed support for Nazi ideas by promoting and publishing his controversial beliefs about homosexuality, forced sterilization, and extermination of the disabled. Schultz claimed that homosexuality was curable, and he led a project that forced gay men to have sex with prostitutes; those found “guilty” of homosexuality were sent to concentration camps. His essay “Psychological Consequences of Sterilization and Castration Among Men” promoted the law that required sterilization for men who showed potential for passing on hereditary diseases, such as neurological conditions or mental retardation. In 1940, Schultz publicized his diagnostic scheme for annihilating “hereditarily degenerated psychopaths.”

Schultz founded the German Society for Medical Hypnosis in 1959. He also edited the journal Psychotherapie.
