Hypnotherapy is one of the world’s oldest known methods for improving and maintaining physical health and emotional well-being. We know from archaeological evidence that hypnosis was commonly used by health practitioners thousands of years ago in Ancient Egypt.
Hypnosis is as old as the pyramids and every bit as enduring and reliable, too. It’s nothing more than a state of mind, a product of the imagination—your imagination. Its effects, however, are very real. It’s powerful, effective, and completely safe because it comes from your own mind.

Dan's Story
Physical trauma from two life threatening accidents was overcome utilizing the tools of hypnosis, and leads a man to bring these gifts to individuals in our community.
My real story begins in the spring of 2001 when I purchased a used motorcycle from a friend. When riding that new motorcycle home, mechanical problems with the bike caused an accident on HWY 17, resulting in a shattered shoulder. With surgery, I had to have the ball in my left shoulder replaced and faced many months of recovery. So here I was with a broken motorcycle, broken shoulder, limited mobility and dampened spirits.
I could have given in to self pity or cursed to gods for making me a victim or looked for someone to blame -
I could have, but I didn't
After the surgery, the pain was persistent and overwhelming. I still had a job I went to everyday, and working while in so much pain was impossible, but pain medication also prevented me from doing my job. I was in a classic Catch-22 scenario. I had to find a way to manage the pain without medication so that I could go to work, and just enjoy my life!
All of my adult life, I have had an interest in the power of the mind, hypnosis, and the power of the mind to heal and overcome obstacles in life. And now I had the perfect opportunity to see first hand using the power of my mind to control pain and heal my shoulder. I began to study self-hypnosis and visualization techniques. With persistent practice, I was soon able to achieve a good trance and disassociate myself from the pain. I used visualization to speed up the recovery process. I was a model patient for the physical therapists surprising them in my dedication and motivation achieve a complete recovery. Within a year, I was completely recovered. If it is to be!..It is up to me!
But this story has only just begun....In February of 2006, I began a new job as a DSL tech for Sprint. Only two weeks after beginning my job, I fell 16 feet from a telephone pole, breaking both arms, left wrist, right elbow and shoulder. This trauma required a total of five surgeries. I should have died, but the accident actually saved my life.....they performed cat scans to check for other internal injuries and discovered a tumor in my kidney. They performed a sixth surgery to remove the entire kidney eliminating the need for chemo or radiation on the tumor. So in the end, falling from a telephone pole saved me from dying of cancer.
As soon as I left the hospital, I began managing my pain with self-hyonosis and used visualizations to heal my entire body. Once again, my recovery was amazing. I have gained 97% use of my right arm and 100% use of my left wrist, astounding my physical therapists and doctors.
These experience led me to learn as much as I could about what I had achieved, ultimately discovering Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Richard Bandler, John Grinder, Milton Erickson, and other greats in the field of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy. In August of 2006 I traveled to California to study with Lightwork Seminars International and earned my certifications as a Licensed NLP practitioner, and a Master NLP practitioner, Certified Hypnotherapist, Advanced Hypnotherapy and Past Life Regression. I have spent the last two years attending seminars and organizing programs, perfecting my skills and am now very excited to offer my services to my community.
It is my hope that I will be able to help others overcome overwhelming obstacles, no matter what they might be. Whether it is an injury, disease, cancer, bad habit, or self improvement to achieve your dreams, hypnosis can help.
