Pain management for hypnotherapists CPD event
How do you work with clients who are experiencing pain? Would you like to develop a greater understanding of pain and how to manage it using a range of hypnotherapy approaches? Join the one-day pain management for hypnotherapists workshop, find out more and get six hours of CPD / six CEU credits (NGH).
Pain is estimated to affect between one-third and one-half of the population of the UK, yet the American Psychological Association consider hypnotherapy is likely to be effective for most people suffering from diverse forms of pain.
For many years, those experiencing pain were treated within the ‘biomedical’ model. The emergence of the ‘biopsychosocial’ model offers a broader range of treatment and management options, including hypnotherapy.
This one-day CPD event is an engaging and interactive workshop for those with a qualification and some experience in hypnosis / hypnotherapy.
Topics include:
- classifications and types of pain
- assessing and describing pain
- emotional influences on pain
- coping strategies and secondary gains
- conventional and contemporary management models and treatment
- hypnotherapy approaches (behavioural, metaphorical, cognitive, analytical, regressive)
- promoting self-management: client tasks and activities (homework)
- case studies.
A detailed workshop manual will be provided, together with a CPD certificate, indicating six hours of CPD (and six CEU for NGH members).
