You will learn how to elicit positive expectations from your first contact with a client in pain through your interview questions and hypnosis pre-talk. You will learn how to choose the best induction for the client in pain, how to teach an appropriate self-hypnosis exercise that will enable your client to get repeatable pain relief, and how to deliver post-hypnotic suggestions that will subconsciously prepare your client to expect repeated relief. The course will cover the most powerful ways to use direct suggestion in hypnosis (DSIH) for analgesia, and how to employ analytical hypnotherapy (e.g., regression and parts therapy methods) for resolving psychological obstacles to improving pain relief and functionality.

However, there are pitfalls that must be avoided in order to maximize results for your clients. This workshop is experiential, and is a MUST for anyone not totally familiar with parts therapy or one of its variations. Roy Hunter, your facilitator, is the published author of two hypnosis texts based on the teachings of the late Charles Tebbetts, as well as Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution: Introducing Parts Therapy (Crown House Publishing, 2005). All who attend will receive a participant workbook.

Roy Hunter, DIMDHA, FAPHP, teaches professionals domestically and abroad. In June of 2006 he taught parts therapy at the London College of Clinical Hypnosis (LCCH). Trained by Charles Tebbetts in 1983, Roy has taught professional hypnosis since 1987. Roy’s texts come highly praised, and are required reading in many hypnosis schools around the world.
