This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of hypnosis in surgery and anesthesia does not seem to have any influence on operative mortality. However, hypnosis and hypnotic techniques teach patients a way to alter their body's reaction to the insult of surgery and all the poisons used to create unconsciousness. The use of hypnosis alters the psychological state of the patient which, in turn, influences the psychological reaction to the insult. This book describes in detail how to teach patients, in just a few minutes, what they can do to accomplish this. It also provides the vast amount of research that has been done to document these physiological changes that seem to be the result of the use of hypnosis. The author and her contributors have made it their goal to alleviate, prevent, and control both pain and suffering. They use hypnosis as an integral part of this effort and describe how it enhances all aspects of pain control. There are chapters on hypnosis as the sole anesthetic, as an adjunct to chemical anesthesia, and in conjunction with regional anesthesia. Additional topics include hypnosis in the intensive care unit and in the emergency room and hypnosis in obstetrics, gynecology, and pediatric surgery. The book concludes with several case studies from physician-patients. This excellent resource is intended to stimulate physicians to explore the vast capabilities of the human mind, when it is working together with the body, and with the help of unconsciousness, to accept hypnotic suggestion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 50 percent of Americans are overweight and looking for a solution. At last, there has been a weight-loss breakthrough that’s easy and has a significant success rate: Paul McKenna’s Hypnotic Gastric Band. Gastric band surgery, a radical operation that reduces the available space in the stomach, is a drastic—though often highly effective—treatment that’s often a last resort. Hypnotic Gastric Band offers similar results without the risks of surgery: this psychological procedure works to convince the unconscious mind that a gastric band has been put in place, helping the body to behave as if a band were physically present—so it’s easy to eat less and lose weight at last, while still feeling completely satisfied. Dr. McKenna spent years researching this groundbreaking process with leading medical experts in weight loss. He describes it as "the closest thing to real magic I have ever experienced," except this procedure isn’t magic, it’s grounded in solid science. All our decisions about food are made in the mind, which in many ways is like a computer. Hypnosis helps to reprogram the "computer" so that when people eat, they feel full faster. With the Hypnotic Gastric Band there is no dangerous physical surgery, no forbidden food, and no miserable dieting. Instead, the Hypnotic Gastric Band helps people make healthier food choices, enjoy their food more, and eat less without effort and without feeling deprived. The book comes with free digital downloads of guided hypnosis and detailed instructions to install your Hypnotic Gastric Band and to adjust it as the weight comes off. Just read the short book, then download the essential 25-minute hypnotic trance and start reprogramming your mind to eat less.

Download or read book Hypnosis in Anaesthesiology written by Jean Lassner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-13 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the First European Congress of Anesthesiology, held in Vienna, Austria, in September, 1962, panel discussions on nineteen different subjects were held, each lasting approxi mately three hours. One, concerning Controversial Aspects of Resuscitation, was later edited by its chairman, PETER SAFAR, and published in 1963. At the request of the publisher, the discussion on hypnosis has been edited in a similar manner. The participants in the discussion on Hypnosis in Anes thesiology had agreed, prior to the meeting, on a list of questions to be debated, and Dr. STOKVIS' introductory statement on the nature of hypnosis was circulated among them in appropriate translations in order to give the debate a starting point. It had also been agreed that no formal papers should be read after this introduction, and that the participants should use at will the German, English or French language. Following each contribution it was the chairman's task to give a brief summary in the two other languages. Discussion was therefore somewhat slowed down and occasionally rendered difficult by misunderstandings or the omission of details. Drs. GUEGUEN, MOSCONI, and VOLGYESI, who were not able. to attend, had sent written contributions which the chairman presented briefly during the discussion. The present text has been worked out of the tape recording of the discussion and the chairman's correspondence with the panelists some time after the meeting. Whenever the original contributions were in French or German, the English translation has been the chairman's.

Download or read book Surgery in Hypnosis written by Mirjam Borsboom and published by Hypnosementor. This book was released on 2018-10-14 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Mirjam is confronted with a fibroadenoma - a connective and glandular tissue lump - in her chest, she asks Ina to accompany her to undergo the operation with hypnosis. This is the starting point of a special adventure in which Ina and Mirjam work towards the operation. The authors of Hypnosis in Surgery are Ina Oostrom, an internationally recognized teacher of hypnosis and hypnotherapy, and Mirjam Borsboom, an experienced hypnotherapist. The book Surgery in Hypnosis is a personal report of an operation performed with hypnosis as natural anesthesia. This event demonstrates the exceptional power of hypnosis. One of the most sensational applications of hypnosis is the removal of pain. This book takes the reader along in the complex preparation process, in which Ina delves into what the best hypnosis techniques are for Mirjam. Together they prepare Mirjam's subconscious as much as possible for the circumstances in the operating room. This thorough preparation seems to work well. An inserted trip to Nairobi results in the code words that Mirjam uses to get to the different hypnotic stages: acacia and simba. The operation itself is described from both Mirjam's and Ina's point of view, which gives a very complete picture of the special experience.Quote from the book Surgery in Hypnosis: "if you consider that Mirjam only used her own mind as a barrier against pain for 9 minutes, the powerful effect of hypnosis is undeniable." With this book, the authors convincingly demonstrate the power of hypnosis. The evaluation with the surgeon, the recommendations for subsequent operations and the numerous references to scientific research complete it.The use of hypnosis for pain relief in medical practice is not new. It was used before the advent of ether and chloroform in the era of the Scottish surgeon James Esdaile (1808-1859) who said about his experience with hypnosis: "In the last six years I have performed more than 300 major operations, most of them particularly serious cases. I did this without causing any pain and in all cases the insensitivity to pain was performed in this way."Who is this book for?This book is highly recommended for medical professionals who want to learn more about the power of hypnosis and its broad applicability in dealing with their patients. It is also a recommendation for patients who want to know how the power of their own subconscious can help them to undergo a medical procedure with less or no fear and pain. Learning self-hypnosis can be a perfect tool for this. For hypnotherapists and other professionals it is an instructive book about the many possibilities of hypnosis, supported by scientific research.Advance praise- I hope that the content will be an opportunity for the interested reader to delve into this new world of thought. This requires at least the necessary curiosity and the will to let go of old convictions. Hypnosis is the means par excellence.Franklin Sluijters, MD, CH National Guild of Hypnotists- The book by Ina and Mirjam lets you experience from close up how they, as pioneers with a centuries-old method, are taking a new step in the Dutch medical world of the 21st century. It is written clearly and recognizably, making it easy to read. You will be taken along in a special hypnosis adventure which I give to everyone who needs surgery.Monique van de Ven, hypnotherapist and certified surgery assistant

Excerpt: ...him into a somnambulist afterwards. He accordingly rendered a man senseless, standing erect, in a few minutes, and failing to awake him, requested me to do so, which was instantaneously done. But, as often happens, when the system is deeply affected, he fell back into the trance, and Mr. B. begged to see the imitative stage of somnambulism. I said, he could do this also himself, by concentrating the patient's attention. Mr. B. was sitting on a table a few yards in front of the man, and made all kinds of noises, which he echoed back. Wishing to examine him more.closely, Mr. B. jumped off" the table, and came running forward with his body bent, and singing. The man did exactly the same, but a sudden fit of rigidity passed through him, and he plunged head foremost against the floor, to Mr. B.'s great distress. I had him placed on a comfortable bed to sleep off the effects, and we left him at 1 o'clock, p. M. I was painfully startled to find the man as stiff as a log to-day, at 11 o'clock, and that he had shown no sign of life since we left him. This would not have alarmed me without the accident, but I feared the head might have been injured by his fall, and set about restoring him to his senses by the usual mesmeric processes, but all in vain. I then had recourse to volatile stimulants to the nose (I could not induce any attempt to swallow, ) and effusion of cold water on the body, and to water poured from a height into his open eyes; but to no purpose. I returned in an hour, and renewed my efforts; no fluid could be got to pass down his throat, it ran out of his mouth as from a dead man's; while looking on attentively, I saw an instinctive effort made to clear the wind-pipe of mucus that obstructed it, and then an attempt to swallow; I took...
