Surgery Preparation:

Preparing to undergo surgery, regardless of how minor or standard it is, is very stressful. There are the natural fears associated with the actual procedure such as the type and length of the surgery, the possibility of complications, etc., coupled with the unknown factors regarding how long a full recovery takes, how successful it will be or will any further procedures be required. All of these fears and stresses make the body tense and anxious and a stressed and tense body and anxious mind is not the ideal candidate for surgery.

 The conscious, logical mind knows all about the surgery; why it's needed, what it is going to fix, etc ; the subconscious however, and the body, are usually not quite as clued in which is why the fears arise in the first place.

How can Hypnosis Help?

Prior to undergoing an operation, hypnosis can be used to enable the body and mind to relax. Relaxation is the first step required to allow a body to heal itself.

During Hypnosis, the reasons for the operation, why it is needed and how it will help can be explained to the subconscious and to the body. This ensures that the mind knows that the operation is necessary for total health and it helps to prepare the body for what will take place during the operation, thus reducing the levels of trauma that occur during surgery.

Coping methods are also taught to the body to enable it to respond in the best way prior to, during and after the surgery. These methods include relaxing prior to the surgery, controlling the bleeding, muscles and nerves during surgery and promoting faster, healthy recovery time and pain control.

Some of the benefits of using hypnosis when preparing for surgery are   reduction of pre and post operation stress; faster recovery time; reduced scarring.

“With the help of hypnosis I was able to relax and remain calm prior to my heart bypass surgery. I felt comfortable about what was to happen knowing that my body would heal completely and quickly…and it did!!!! "
