About Surgery
I want to thank you, again,
for teaching me to heal quickly and without pain, via self-hypnosis.
During both my surgeries (facial surgery in 2006 and knee surgery in
2008), I had minimal discomfort, did not use pain medications, and
was told by the surgeons that I had healed more quickly than most
patients. I recommend your hypnosis sessions without reservation.
Marsha Kelly, Carmel, CA
"You go to the head of the class,"
proclaimed my Dr. as he examined me on a follow up visit for my
cosmetic surgery. One of the reasons that I made the" promotion" was
the fast rate of healing from my face surgery. We feel that it is
due to the hypnotic healing tape Dr. Bee made for me. There is no
doubt in either my mind or the surgeons that hypnosis definitely had
a powerful impact. Listening to the tape on a consistent basis
before surgery enabled me to go through surgery with ease, and
accelerate the healing. Later I had neurosurgery on my neck, again
with remarkable results.
Susan Tasner, Carmel, CA
"Thank you for making my surgery
so easy. I had no fear at all and was relaxed before and during the
two-hour surgery done with local anesthetic. I was surprised that
there was no pain, either immediately after or during the next few
days. Hypnosis is a very powerful tool to aid in surgery, both in
attitude and pain. I can't thank you enough for your professional
manner and skill.
Rosalind Enright, San Carlos, CA
My three and a half
year-old daughter required surgery. Since she is a special needs
child, the doctors were concerned about the procedure and possible
complications. Dr. Bee (also grandma) hypnotized her the night
before surgery. She was completely calm at the hospital before she
went into surgery. I got a hypnotic script to read to her after
coming out of surgery. She recovered very quickly. At her follow-up
the doctor was very pleased that she healed so quickly without the
complications he was concerned about. The hypnosis was very helpful.
Nicole Kelly, Carmel, CA
"Your hypnosis was helpful to me
because it enabled me to feel more calm and more in control of my
emotions prior to surgery. Furthermore it helped me feel I as an
active player in my own health concerns. And finally, according to
the surgeon, the cyst appeared smaller than previously noted.
Karen Zedek, Kansas City MO
A few months ago I was
scheduled for surgery, and since my body does not respond well to
pain medications, I decided to talk to Dr Bee Epstein-Shepherd about
trying hypnosis to aid my recovery both during and after the
procedure. While I expected hypnotherapy to at least have some sort
of positive effect, I was absolutely amazed by how well it really
worked! Dr Bee made an audio tape for me to listen to starting a few
days prior to the surgery, and then again on the morning just before
I left for the hospital. The surgery itself went extremely well, but
the part that really thrilled me was that I never experienced any
post-operative pain or discomfort and never needed to use any of the
meds that the doctor had prescribed for me. The actual healing
process was completely seamless and I surprised both the doctor and
myself with how quickly I recovered.
I would not hesitate to recommend hypnotherapy with Dr Bee
Epstein-Shepherd to anyone going in for a surgical procedure. It far
exceeded my expectations for a quick and easy recovery. Valerie Ramsey, Monterey, CA
Cancer
I
wanted to let you know how much you helped me through my cancer
journey. I have completed radiation, chemo and stem cell transplant
and triumphantly state I am now in remission. Thanks to you I
experienced all these issues without any pain medication. My doctors
were quite impressed. The self-hypnosis you taught me was my comfort
and strength.... Again, thank you very much.
Tamra Jennings Marver, Carmel
I have had a needle phobia
since I was five years old. When I began chemotherapy, it got so bad
I would vomit and pass out at the thought or sight of needles.
People who have been providing my medical care say that what you did
with hypnosis was a miracle. Working with you has changed my life.
There is no way I can thank you enough, I will always be grateful.
Every cancer patient should have the benefit of your work.

Other Medical
The difference in my life since our session is noticeable
to those who know me well. My doctor even noticed a positive impact
on my physical health. I am able to think and respond more clearly
in both personal and professional settings. Theresa Rouse, Carmel
Valley
Dr. Epstein-Shepherd's hypnosis-based program has
dramatically relieved intense unremitting orthopedic pain which was
debilitating my ability to function, to sleep and to "answer any
bell" without massive discomfort and effort. Since receiving her
hypnotic treatments and utilizing her tapes, I have been able to
"answer all bells" -- both professional and personal.
Dr. Ralph Thomson, Salt Lake City, UT
Without Dr. Bee's
expert hypnotism I would never have been able to undergo a serious
medical test. I am very grateful.
Stefani Chaney, Carmel, CA.
"I am a forty-something year
old woman who had been experiencing chronic sleep problems since my
college years. Prior to meeting Dr. Bee Epstein-Shepherd, I had
always dismissed the idea of hypnosis as a hoax. My mind was changed
forever after attending only one informative group session with Bee.
Following the first group session I spoke with Bee about my sleep
difficulties. I had tried so many other doctors and programs for
help, I figured I could not afford to pass up the opportunity to try
anything that might work. I am delighted to report that each night
since my private session, I have been enjoying the benefits of a
full, restful night's sleep. My family, friends, co-workers and
therapist all have noticed the remarkable change sleeping has made
in my demeanor."
Sue Swoffer Ward, Huntington Beach, CA
Weight Control
"Thank you for your sessions. I have been feeling
great. 10 lbs. lighter physically and about 100 lbs. lighter
mentally--no problem with group talks."
Stephanie Morrell, Real Estate Broker, WA.
I feel more energy, vitality and lightness. The pounds are coming
off easily and effortlessly. It feels so good. I also feel more
grounded and relaxed.
Toni Bradshaw, Computer Resources Group
I want to thank you
for your help in modifying my diet and improving my health with
hypnosis. I reduced my cravings for sweets, and have eliminated my
desire for unhealthy food. Because of this I lost 15 lbs which I
have kept off over a year and lowered my cholesterol by almost 100
points. Thanks again for these results and I am sure you can help
many people improve both their health and appearance.
