Testimonials:
This is my first non AANA or MIANA CE meeting in over 30 years. I chose this meeting first for the CE's and second for the content. I am so glad I ended up here this was one of the greatest seminars I’ve ever attended. Useful information, information I will take home and use Monday in clinical. I don’t know if I’ll ever have a hypnosis practice but I do know the hypnotic techniques will be invaluable in my day to day interaction with my patients – Thanks Ron, I will share this with other CRNAs and nurses so our patients will be better served. – Dorothy Dillard, CRNA
Program was excellent, I am sure it will not only enhance my practice but also myself as a whole and healthy person. I am very grateful for having this experience – thank you Ron! I know I am no longer the person who chooses to experience flight anxiety. I have a tool to use and I feel free. – Tammy Cambria, CRNA
This seminar was well worth the time and money even if there were no credits offered! Not only will our patients benefit but we benefit as well. There is not a day in our lives where the concepts we learned will not benefit us personally but the benefits to patients will be immeasurable. Linda Williams, CRNA, ID
Great classroom experience…Excited to integrate into my practice! – Stephanie R. Jones, CRNA
Before the course I noticed how Patients respond to words before and after anesthesia. Now I have the tools backed by so many studies to approach any anesthesia situation giving the patient such a HUGE advantage. Wow! Ron is such a wealth of knowledge with experience to empower any provider to benefit each patient. I am looking forward to Ron’s next seminar to learn more! – Ken Cushman, CRNA
Thanks for a great week. I knew I would use what you taught us but didn't know it would be right after I got home.
It was late so I checked a couple of things then went to bed. My husband complained of neck pain and neck soreness he has had for weeks. He was lying on his side so I told him to take deep breaths then I tapped on his shoulders. He seemed relaxed so I turned the TV off and lights off. He said he thought his neck was a little better then he fell off to sleep. He usually has trouble sleeping so this was good.
This morning he said he couldn't explain it but the tapping helped.
Linda Williams, CRNA
