Surgery in and of itself is scary enough. When your surgery involves a complicated health issue, the whole process can trigger deep fear. There is another unfortunate complication here. Stress can harm your health even further. So a surgery that is supposed to help you can actually harm your health in unforeseen ways because of the stress and worry about the operation. Surgery preparation and recovery hypnosis is a great way to overcome the fear of surgery. In doing so, it can make your body more receptive to recovery in general.
The connection between your mind and your body is extremely powerful. Hypnosis is becoming accepted by the main stream to the point that a new field known as psychoneuroimmunology is growing rapidly. Psychoneuroimmunology is the study of how your emotions impact your body and its immune system. Surgery preparation and recovery hypnosis is one way to bridge the gap between mind and body and bring greater harmony between the two.
Hypnosis can help reprogram your mind and facilitate behavioral change.

Cancer is a word that strikes terror into the hearts of many. Ironically, stress has been proven in some cases to be a catalyst for cancer developing in your body. Sure, there are other factors including genetics, unhealthy habits, and lifestyle. However, stress does play a large part in laying the foundation for diseases, including cancer.
The sooner you can reduce your stress, the better it is for your body that is already compromised by illness. Prepare for surgery hypnosis begins by heightening your awareness of your inner being. Perhaps your fear is centered on the actual surgery or possibly what will happen after the surgery. Conceivably the fear could stem from bad memories of a previous surgery.
During a New York hypnosis for Surgery and Recovery session, clients are guided into a relaxed state of mind where negativity attached to your thoughts regarding surgery can be eliminated. Instead of feeling vulnerable, you will feel in control of your own body and future.
There are some other benefits as well. You will likely not need as much anesthesia because your mind will not be resisting “going under” for the surgery. The post-surgery pain will be lessened and it will speed up your recovery. The overall benefit of a speedy and reduced-pain recovery also means lower medical costs.
Surgery preparation and recovery hypnosis makes the ideal mind-body connection so that you not only stop being afraid of the surgery but you embrace the healing nature of the surgery. Your body believes what your mind tells it. The message here is loud and clear. This surgery is a health-producing procedure and your body will not resist the healing effects that will follow.
Hypnosis can accelerate healing and enhance your overall health and wellness. The power of positive hypnotic suggestion is now being practiced and employed in many top hospitals across the country. The health-enhancing uses of hypnosis are numerous, including: accelerating recovery from illness and surgery, calming pre-surgery anxiety, and easing childbirth.
Anxiety is not your friend when undergoing surgery. Hypnosis prior to surgery helps you in all aspects of your surgery and recovery. It not only creates benefits while in the operating room, it can also shorten your hospital stay, lessen your need for pain medication, accelerate incision repair and get you back to your life sooner.
“Surgeon Kolouch finished compiling the records of 100 patients on whom he has performed surgery with hypnosis, and concluded that in 81 cases the trance experience had saved patients anxiety, pain and money, and had speeded recovery. It also helped the surgeon, anesthesiologist and nurses.”
