Peggy Huddleston will show you how to give a one-hour workshop using mind-body techniques for people facing surgery. The training is based on her book, Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster: A Guide of Mind-Body Techniques and its companion Relaxation CD or MP3. Research shows that Huddleston’s method of preparing for surgery helps people significantly reduce anxiety, use 23-50% less pain medication and heal faster.

You will learn to use mind-body techniques to give 4 one-hour workshops:

• Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster Workshop
• Reduce Anxiety, Headaches and Insomnia Workshop
• How to Stop Having Migraine Headaches

Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster Workshops are recommended in hospitals across the US including, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a Harvard Medical School teaching hospital, NYU Langone Medical Center, Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center, and Johns Hopkins Medical Center.

A controlled study at the Lahey Clinic in Burlington, MA with 56 patients having colorectal surgery showed patients had significantly less anxiety before surgery and left the hospital 1.6 days sooner than the controls. By day two at home, they used 60% less pain medication.
