CD # 2
In 1982 Ron Eslinger recorded his first "Preparing for Surgery and During Surgery Tapes". In 2000, Blue Shield of California reported they had a new tactic to ease surgery: The insurer sends members a 20-minute guided-imagery tape or CD. Patients listen to it several times before surgery and experience less anxiety before surgery, and less blood loss and pain after surgery. They even need less medical care and medication.
Ron's soothing voice on CD # 1 guides the listener through a progressive relaxation and guided imagery in preparation for a very pleasant and comfortable dental visit. CD # 2 is designed to listen to during the actual dental procedure. There is a mixture of guided imagery suggestions and relaxing biorhythmic music coupled with sleep enhancing Theta waves to create a calm and serene tranquil feeling.
