Synopsis

The purpose of this book is to make imagery techniques readily accessible to professionals in the health and mental health fields. Imagery techniques are a relatively new development in the health and mental health fields. Imagery techniques have been used with excellent results for acute as well as chronic illnesses. These techniques have also proven effective in easing predicaments of interpersonal relationships. Empirical research studies have accumulated to show that imagery techniques are cost effective short-term treatment procedures. Now that the various Health Maintenance Organizations are discovering that there are financial incentives in helping people maintain good health rather than wait to provide treatment after the person has developed an illness, imagery techniques should prove useful, in conjunction with conventional medical care, for both the prevention and treatment of illnesses of various kinds. It is addressed to practitioners and students in the various helping and healing professions. Social workers, psychologists, counselors, nurse practitioners and others will find this work useful It may also be of interest to the general reader who intends to preserve good health or cope more effectively with some persistent health concern.
