Synopsis

Medical Hypnotherapy, Volume One, is an instructional manual and field guide for both practitioners and patients. With only minutes of instruction in specific hypnosis methods, healthcare providers of all levels can use hypnotherapy to help the overwhelming majority of sick or injured people reduce or even eliminate their pain and suffering, heal faster, and avoid potential complications from medical procedures. Also with the use of hypnosis, people respond better to medical treatments and are more likely and able to participate in their own recovery. Scientific data about medical hypnosis from various reputable researchers and institutions, such as the Mayo Clinic and the National Institutes of Health, have provided abundant evidence of the value of integrating hypnotherapy into our approach to wellness. The hypnotherapy methods presented in this book are all natural, gathered by observing people who naturally control pain and think and act in ways that lead to faster healing and illness prevention. From this information, systems and strategies have been created that everyone can learn and benefit from. Principles and Methods of Practice, volume 1 of Medical Hypnotherapy, has been organized according to the way I prepare people for hypnotherapy certification at the Hypnotherapy Academy of America. The material, however, has been condensed since it would not be possible to include every aspect of the certification program, which entails hundreds of hours of instruction and guided practice. Still, the book will lead you clearly and succinctly to an understanding of the fundamentals of medical hypnotherapy and Medical Hypnotherapy how to make use of its methods to benefit you and your clients or patients. The principals and methods described in this book are trusted by National Institutes of Health (NIH), which is the United States Department of Health and Human Services research wing. Some of the techniques found in this book are currently being used by the NIH in a research project.

Review:

An excellent resource, which every healthcare practitioner and patient should read. The information contained in this book will truly educate the practitioner and help the practitioner create a healing relationship and environment. I know from experience that medical education informs us but does not educate us in a way that enables us to help the patient and their experience of an illness and its treatment. volume 1 of Medical Hypnotherapy does the job with its insights, techniques, and wisdom. Bernie Siegel, MD Author of Love, Medicine & Miracles and Help Me to Heal. Hypnosis is one of the most misunderstood of all medical therapies, yet one of the most valuable. In volume 1 of Medical Hypnotherapy, Tim Simmerman reveals how this natural, mind-body technique can be used as an integral part of conventional medicine to prevent pain, diminish fear and anxiety, and relieve suffering. This is one of those unusual books that is accessible to laypersons and healthcare professionals alike. It deserves to be read in every medical school in the nation. Larry Dossey, MD Author of The Extraordinary Healing Power of Ordinary Things. Volume 1 of Medical Hypnotherapy is a fantastic book. It should be must reading for all medical students, interns, residents, and anyone who works in clinical settings. I wish I d had this information twenty years ago!
