Surgeon Uses New Acupressure Technique to Lower Surgery Risk

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) -- Almost everyone who’s scheduled for surgery experiences at least a few symptoms of anxiety. But while some stress is normal, patients who experience severe anxiety actually increase their need for sedating drugs and subsequent complications such as severe pain, slower wound healing, and increased risk of infection, adverse drug reactions, cognitive impairment, and longer hospital stays.

According to Los Angeles surgeon Eric Robins, MD, there’s a simple way to reduce these risks by reducing the anxiety that causes them. His prescription is EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), a simple do-it-yourself procedure that combines gentle fingertip tapping on key acupuncture points with focused thought.

“Stress is a real problem in health and healing,” says Dr. Robins. “but it doesn’t just complicate surgery, it actually contributes to disease. Most of the problems that send people to surgeons are themselves linked to stress, anxiety, or past traumas. I like EFT because it’s easy to demonstrate, easy to learn, works fast, and addresses an illness’s underlying factors. In some cases, it works so well that we have to cancel the operation.”

One of Dr. Robins’ patients was scheduled for surgery because she wasn’t able to void urine after a knee replacement. During her pre-op exam, Dr. Robins wondered whether emotional factors might be interfering with the function of her bladder.

She answered that stress from her husband’s recent illness might be a factor. “Even though we were talking in a busy medical clinic with many distractions,” says Dr. Robins, “I taught her EFT and guided her through 10 minutes of tapping. After we filled the patient’s bladder with water and removed her catheter, she voided just fine. Five days later she was still doing well, making the surgery unnecessary. Her symptoms never returned.”

When surgery is needed, he says, EFT can reduce or eliminate pre-op nerves, reduce the patient’s need for anesthetics, speed recovery, and improve the procedure’s outcome.

Reducing a patient’s need for sedating drugs is important not only to those with drug sensitivities but to America’s aging population. According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists, over half of patients age 60 and older experience confusion and other symptoms of cognitive impairment when discharged after surgery, and three months later, over a third continue to be adversely affected. Patients undergoing heart surgery, joint replacement, or fracture repair are at greatest risk of anesthesia-related mental decline.
Gary Craig, the Stanford-trained engineer who developed EFT, has collected thousands of reports from EFT practitioners around the world. “Several describe how by reducing their anxiety, patients reduced and in some cases eliminated their need for epidurals and other drugs or procedures,” he says. “Others demonstrate how EFT speeds recovery and helps patients regain their full range of motion and resume their normal activities.”
“EFT is one of my favorite healing tools,” says Dr. Robins. “It’s the perfect complement to conventional medicine, and I strongly recommend it for anyone getting ready for surgery.”

Complete instructions for using EFT are provided in the free EFT Manual, which over 300,000 have downloaded from the EFT website. Another 10,000 download it each month. The manual, which has been translated by volunteer practitioners into nine languages, explains the basics so that anyone can begin applying EFT right away. It can be freely downloaded at

 

 

EFT for math and test anxiety in classroom situations

My client Patsy Green, is a school teacher who has a split class of grade three and four. We have had some success in our sessions and so Patsy tried EFT with her class for performance anxiety for a math test. Here is her letter to me about the results.

Regards,

Hi Andy,

You wanted me to write about EFT with my class so here goes:

Once I recognized the amazing benefits of EFT for myself, I decided to show my grade threes and fours how it can work for test anxiety. 

My students are given a weekly math speed test with 100 basic multiplication facts.  Their goal is to improve their mark each week by at least three percent.  When I asked them who felt stressed or anxious during these tests they all admitted to experiencing stress to varying degrees. 

I told them that I was learning a new technique to help me with my own worries.  Then I gave them your metaphor of a free flowing river and what happens to the river once a tree falls across it and blocks the flow of the water, so that they could understand what happens to their minds when they're experiencing stress. 

I taught them the basic karate chop tapping method and gave them an affirmation to repeat a few times.  After the students marked their tests we noticed that those who were not yet achieving 99% or 100% each week had all improved their marks.  They were quite impressed! 

But best of all was the huge smile on Brychan's face. He stood up and yelled, "I got 100!  I got 100!"He had improved his mark by 18%. This is a child whom I have taught for two years and has great difficulty with written output. Afterwards he said to me,  "You know, meditation could work too."  I agreed with him that it could, just not during a speed test!

The following week we tried EFT again with similar results.   Then I gave my grade fours a lesson on equivalent fractions. I obviously didn't teach it very well, and after noticing most of them working at frustration level I attempted to reteach the concept.

While I was explaining, I noticed that two children were tapping!  I smiled and asked, "Do equivalent fractions make you feel that anxious?"  One girl grinned right back at me and said, "Yep!" 

I realized again what a wonderful teaching tool EFT is.  Not only does it help children relieve their anxieties and help to improve their test scores, it can also enlighten me as to when my students are having difficulty understanding concepts or when they're feeling frustrated.  Often the children who are the least vocal are the ones who experience the most anxiety, and tapping is a polite way for them to make me aware that they need some assistance or compassion.

Thanks again, Andy!

Sincerely, Patsy Green

Hypnosis

 

Hypnosis is a natural state of deep physical and mental relaxation.  In this state your subconscious opens and

accepts positive suggestions and imagery.

 

In a state of hypnosis you are aware of your surroundings but feel so relaxed that the usual distractions seem to fade away.  You are always in control and accept only the suggestions

which are beneficial for you. You do remember what you

 have said and done in trance.

 

Hypnotherapy combines hypnosis and therapy and allows

you to clearly identify and solve your problem by tapping

your own inner wisdom.  Virginia’s role is to guide you through the process.  She does not provide answers but instead assists

you in finding your own answers from within.  

 

With Hypnotherapy and EFT you can:

·               Reduce stress

·               Relieve and manage pain

·               Reduce weight

·               Quit smoking

·               Release phobias

·               Improve Self Esteem
