After my hypnotherapy sessions with Helen and listening to the recordings daily, I had my foot operation. I felt concerned immediately before the operation but not over-anxious and I could control my reaction to the anxiety, ie I wasn’t in floods of tears and shaking [as I had been previously].
Two incisions were made, one an inch long and the other 3 inches long, and two bones were broken and screwed and stapled in place.
After a week my wound was checked and the nurses were shocked that I’d only had the operation a week ago. They said it looked like [they would expect to see] after 3 weeks of healing, not 1 week. There was minimal swelling and no bruising and both incisions [were] very clean due to the healing, [with] no additional bleeding from the wound sites … I didn’t even have any bruising from the canulla [and] I bruise so easily.
Hypnotherapy really helped me with [both] my anxiety about the operation and the fast healing.
