Peggy Huddleston, author of Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster, will show you how to use medically-proven relaxation and visualization techniques with patients facing surgery. You will also learn how patients can utilize mind-body techniques to reduce pain, improve quality of sleep and increase range of motion during physical therapy.
A meta-analysis of 191 studies with 8,600 patients showed that patients who prepared for surgery had less blood loss, used less pain medication, fewer complications and a shorter length of stay. For patients facing chemotherapy, you also learn how they can lessen side effects.
Huddleston's ground-breaking clinical work and writing focus on the ways positive emotions and the human spirit enhance healing. She is the principal investigator of research studies at two Harvard Medical School teaching hospitals.
Her pre-surgical program is recommended at leading hospitals including:
"I recommend Peggy Huddleston's book and tape to all
who require surgery and want to heal faster."
Andrew T. Weil, MD
Author, 8 Weeks to Optimum Health
"This program should be in the hands of everyone having surgery."
Christiane Northrup, MD
Author, Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom
To feel profoundly peaceful, you will discover how to use the Relaxation/Healing tape. Many people report that they connect to an inner peace they have never known as they listen to the tape twice a day for one to two weeks.
If you have chronic aches or pain, you will learn how to use the program to reduce pain and enhance self-healing.
A research study by Huddleston and Benjamin E. Bierbaum, MD, Chief of Orthopedic Surgery at the New England Baptist Hospital, a Tufts and Harvard Medical School teaching hospital with 44 patients having knee-joint replacement documented that patients using her book, relaxation tape and one-hour workshop were calmer the day before surgery and left the hospital 1 1/3 days sooner than the control group.
