Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management Workbook

Ist wieder einmal ein Buch über Hypnose, das endlos lange bei Geschichte und Einführung verweilt, ein paar Induktionen bietet, die Sie auch in jedem anderen Buch über Hypnose finden und dann auf ein paar Seiten auf Interventionen für Schmerz eingeht. Habe es zurückgeschickt.

Este artículo lo devolví pues quedé muy decepcionada de la calidad de la impresión. Era muy evidente que no se trataba de un trabajo de imprenta sino de impresora de fotocopias, incluso la cubierta era de impresora. Yo creo que eso debería especificarse en la descripción del artículo. Muy desafortunado, pues el contenido se veía interesante.

Very well written overview of hypnosis in pain management but applicable to many other areas. I would imagine the companion book for therapists is equally good but does not seem to have come out yet.Grounded in solid research which is unusual in this field.

I bought this book and the therapist guide because I have had neuropathy in my feet for 4 years and even with acupuncture and gabapentin I still couldn't do many activities. I also felt sad because of it. I read these books and made recordings using the therapist guide. Now, I do the hypnosis recordings 1-2 times daily and use the scripts in this workbook 1-3 times daily and after 6 weeks my pain is so much better. I can do Zumba without sitting between songs, I can dance for hours, and I can walk at work like I used to, and I have decreased my gabapentin dose. I feel so good emotionalIy as well. I highly recommend this book and the therapist guide. If you put in the work, you will be pleasantly surprised by the results.

Although this book appears to be directed to the lay person, I would encourage my colleagues to read it as well! As a family nurse practitioner who sees people with chronic pain daily, I am always looking for ways to help my patients with chronic pain besides just medication and surgery. I have recently added hypnosis to my toolbox, but still struggle with the myths and misconceptions about it. It is my hope that someday, with the work of those like Dr. Jensen, my colleagues will stop smirking when I use the "H" word. Thanks David Caulfield MSN Lacey, WA.
