With a long and successful record of being used for the treatment of pain, hypnosis continues to be a first-tier approach to what so often seems an intractable problem – chronic pain. Used by itself or in combination with other methods, facilitated by a professional or employed as a self-healing process, hypnosis taps into resources that are already within the individual rather than looking for external (usually palliative) ones. This book is the perfect pass-along book from clinician to client to help support healing outside of the office.

Drawing on more than 20 years of experience in the field, Dr. Eimer offers a straightforward, compassionate, and user-friendly guide for anyone who seeks pain relief. Recognizing the unique nature of each individual and the unique ways in which pain manifests, the book offers a range of hypnotic approaches so that every reader can find a program that meets his or her challenges and is suited to his or her personality, schedule, and strengths.

Readers will learn:

• How to use self-hypnosis to relieve pain
• How to tap into one’s own innate ability to control pain
• How to choose the best method for the particular problem and person
• How to interrupt the body’s pain loop
• How to enlist a variety of tools to empower the healing process

Also included is a complimentary CD that contains guided imagery and relaxation exercises, therapeutic touch and energy healing techniques, stress control strategies, as well as a host of other helpful materials.

“Those who suffer chronic pain have often spent a long time trying medical and alternative approaches without finding relief … take heart, reading this book will make a difference for you and will help you regain control of your mind and body … the most comprehensive and effective program for lasting pain relief that I have ever found.” Susanna Bellini, NLP trainer, counselor, hypnotherapist, and chronic pain survivor
