Arthur Shapiro Award winning book also available at Amazon.

Dr. Laser's book "Patient Sedation Without Medication" is a practical and insightful handbook for incorporating hypnosis into everyday patient scenarios. Her workshop takes the information even further. She gives clinicians valuable tools to provide better patient care. Dr. Laser's workshop is informative, fun and thought provoking. I loved her creativity with implementation of live visits and movies, great scripts and so much more. She challenges healthcare providers to think outside the box.

Communications skills to allay fear and anxiety and hypnosis for the procedure.

“I attended the Patient Sedation without Medication Seminar and it was wonderful! Eleanor is a great speaker and I picked up a ton of new ideas to use at our Endoscopy Center. The next week she came to our Center and talked to the entire staff and administration. She is very inspiring and we are beginning to use her techniques not only with staff members but also patients! I am so glad I had this opportunity and got to meet Elly in person!”

My roommate and I decided to try hypnotism to quit smoking. We booked a double appointment and went to see Elly Laser. The whole procedure was very simple. First we were shown an anti-smoking movie which was graphic and informative. At the end Elly said if that was convincing enough we could leave now. I said it was enough for me but my roommate wanted to go further.

We then individually watched a light go back and forth while we were asked questions about early smoking and our relationship with it and how it fit into our lives. Then we were asked to close our eyes while listening to a soothing script. You're never put "under". You're fully aware at all times. Then when we left for some strange reason neither of us felt like smoking. I say give it a try. What do you have to lose but a dirty, expensive habit?

Take care,
Kathy
