Hypnosis is one of the least invasive treatments available in the world today.
You get to be an active part in healing yourself and creating change in your
life.There are no drugs, so there are NO drug side effects. There is
no need to re-live and dissect every painful event of your life. Best of all, it gets AMAZING results.
In January of 2003 the AMA Journal of Medicine reported that
66% of Americans utilize "complementary medicine", most paying
"out of pocket". The NIH (National Institutes of Health) has even
added an entire division to discerning the efficacy of alternative and
complementary therapies.
Hypnosis is not hocus pocus, or occult mysticism. It is a
remarkable way to access the subconscious mind and create change in your life.
Hypnosis is helpful with many issues:
Smoking Cessation Weight Loss
Fibromyalgia
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Multiple Sclerosis Concentration and Learning
Stress Reduction Uncontrollable Fears
Trouble sleeping Memory Improvement
Exercise Motivation Headaches and
Migraines
Asthma Fear of enclosed spaces
Nail Biting Immune System

Wound
Healing
Hypnosis often achieves remarkable results, even when other methods fail.
I first became interested in Hypnosis in the late 80's when I
realized that the biggest reason some people didn't heal well after surgery was
that they were holding some form of emotion at the surgery site. I began
looking for a simple, effective way to release pent up emotion without going
deeply into the realm of psychology. So, I did a little research. I liked what
I found and continued to look around. I experienced hypnosis for the first time
in 94, and was amazed at what it could do. I continued my sporadic research,
and finally found Katherine Zimmerman in early 2004. I finished my training in
2005, and have begun offering hypnosis to interested clients.
Chronic pain
changes everything about your life.
Ordinarily, when we receive a pain stimulus, our body produces
endorphins to help fight the pain. Recent studies have shown that in patients
with chronic pain, the body reduces the amount of pain fighting endorphins it
produces, eventually producing none at all. This reaction to chronic pain has
often been confused with developing a "drug tolerance", and as a
result, long term chronic pain is often seriously under medicated. Any client
who wishes to use Hypnosis as a way to control chronic pain must have a medical
referral.
Depression can easily set in when you live with chronic pain.
While many of my clients see me for chronic pain, hypnosis can also help
significantly with Fibromyalgia, and Irritable Bowel Syndrome. With both
conditions, the success rate is 85% or more. The work is interesting and
rewarding, and I'm really enjoying it.
Remember that EVERY DRUG on the market has a price to pay in
side effects. Side effects can range from mild to murderous depending on the
drug and the disease. Sometimes the positive effects are worth it, sometimes
they are not. What medications to take and when should be always be discussed
with your Doctor.
If you have, or suspect
you have a serious disease or other medical condition, please discuss all
treatment options with your doctor. Hypnosis and EFT can significantly reduce
chronic pain. However, it is NOT a replacement for proper medical diagnosis and
care. You should not alter medications or dosages without consulting the professional
who prescribed them.
