In fact, as a side note, Marcia makes it a point never to use the word “pain” even when doing emergency pain management. It’s too emotionally charged a word. She’ll mention “discomfort” if necessary, but prefers to talk about soothing feelings replacing any other sensation.

I wonder if you uses one of the "protocols." I have to admit the protocols are a bit new to me, hence that means they will probably make for a blog entry soon. LOL. That’s good to know.

My hypnotherapy teacher, Marcia Proctor (http://members.aol.com/marciadp/), has worked with IBS sufferers and been very successful with them. Haven't been there myself yet but at least I know it's possible to help someone like that when/if I meet one.<br/><br/>-Michael Raugh, C.H. This doesn’t surprise me.
