Scott Sandland – Hypnotic Pain Control for the 21st Century

Archive : Scott Sandland – Hypnotic Pain Control for the 21st Century

This book (200+ pages, and 43 chapters) is a combined transcript from two pain control lectures from Scott Sandland.  It includes multiple classic and original techniques and, maybe more importantly, the insights into customize each of them.  Understanding the variety of ways a technique can be modified allows you to tailor each process to the various conditions including type of pain (burning, shooting, aching, etc.) as well as the type of client you might be working with (auditory, skeptical, high functioning, etc).

Total Pain Management is written for the practicing hypnotist.  It emphasizes client interaction and provides deep insights into working with people living in chronic pain and how to get the referrals needed to make it work.  One great benefit of the transcription is the inclusion of common questions and answers from professional hypnotists in the classroom.  This means you  get more than just Scott’s understanding of the work, you also learn along with dozens of students as you read.

Hypnotists have built entire careers with fewer techniques than what are found in this book. Few people have brought as much creativity and effort into the world of hypnotic pain control, and the results speak for themselves.  The insights included in these lectures are top notch. Anyone interested in helping clients who are suffering should read this immediately.
Many of the ideas in this book can become part of a self-hypnosis practice.  If you suffer from any type of pain, and have sought solutions, you will find answers in this book!
