I am a registered nurse of nearly 30 years who has practiced within the box of traditional medicine and never been a firm believer in the benefit of alternative therapies in any application. In fact I must admit that I would often discourage patients from exploring any aspect of therapy outside the usual prescribed modalities that healthcare embraces. All I can say is that has changed!
I have had several orthopedic injuries and surgeries to repair fractures, the most painful was a neck fusion in 2003. The recovery was hard, the pain was horrible and seemed to take months to recover. I was told at the time that should the need arise where another neck surgery was necessary, I would be permenently disabled, in chronic pain and run a high risk of paralysis as well as other horrible conditions. Well the time came that I once again needed neck surgery, this time to fuse my entire neck...I was terrified. Seemed my future was dark and without hope... then I met Bob.

Bob explained to me the benefit massage therapy and hypnosis could offer and that it may well hasten my healing, reduce pain and provide me with a great chance to live a normal life. I was a bit skeptical but agreed to meet with Bob and try hypnosis. He took a great deal of time, explained to me what hypnosis is, what it can provide and taylored it to meet my needs. I found Bob to be honest, open and very easy to relate to and soon felt comfortable enough to pursue hypnosis. After two sessions, I learned how to relax, get in touch with my body, deal with anxiety and talk to my body to promote healing. I did the homework, I practiced every day prior to surgery and the results even astounded the doctors.
I was expected to be hospitalized for 5 days, I was out in 2 days. I have very little pain, the feeling has returned to a once "dead" arm, I had no anxiety going into surgery and none after. My first post-op check up was two weeks after surgery and the surgeon was blown away. An xray of my neck showed what appeared to be a "healed neck fusion"...an xray that no one expected to see for another 3 months. I am now released to return to work on May 1st, 2008, 2 months earlier than the surgeon had indicated prior to surgery. I am on top of the world and thank Bob for giving me the tools to heal and have a normal life.

I am no longer a skeptic but a strong believer. I am in the Master's program for nursing and have chosen the benefit of hypnosis and massage therapy in musculo-skelatal injuries as my clinical project. I find myself encouraging people to seek out alternative treatments and therapies that may work in conjunction with or compliment traditional medical treatments. Hypnosis, massage therapy and other alternative modalities serve a vital role in obtaining the wellness that we all desire and I thank Bob for opening my eyes to the benefits and giving my quest for wellness a big boost in the arm!

I was having difficulty memorizing information in order to pass my final in Anatomy and Physiology. I had previously failed the final exam two times. I was also filled with anxiety over testing in addition to always having difficulty with taking standardized tests. Bob offered to hypnotize me with the goal of passing my final. I found that when I used the hypnotism homework that Bob gave me after our session I retained the information for the exam I was very clear and relaxed. When I went to take the final, I was uncharacteristically calm and the answers seemed to be on the forefront of my mind. I know the hypnotism made a huge difference and I was able to increase my score by 20pts!! I would recommend hypnotism by Bob for any obstacle you might be having, it could save you a lot of unnecessary struggles.

I have had two hypnosis sessions with Bob. When we began he asked first about what I wanted to accomplish through hypnotherapy. As we discussed my reasons for hypnosis, I also told him about my problem with anxiety. Bob added suggestions during my sessions to help alleviate that at the same time. Throughout the ensuing days I found myself taking deep breaths for no apparent reason and I would feel more relaxed and less anxious almost immediately. I tend to be a bit high strung but Bob’s voice has the ability to soothe me instantly, I feel the tension ooze out of me as soon as he begins to speak. It also helps that the chair, lighting and his choice in music for these sessions is impeccable. I would highly recommend Bob, and have, to any of my friends and acquaintances.

About 6 weeks before a very important exam that I was preparing for, I started feeling very nervous and stressed every time I would study. I found myself unable to focus or retain any of the material. When I mentioned this to Bob he asked if I would be open to trying hypnosis. I told him I was willing to give it a try. After the very first session I had an overwhelming sense of calmness and confidence whenever I thought about and studied for the exam. After session number two I knew that all my hard work and studies were going to payoff. I no longer was fearful of taking my exam. Two weeks after the second session I took and passed the exam with no great stress or anxiety. Hypnosis, thanks to Bob, really helped me get through it.

Since implementing my breathing exercises and the techniques you have taught me through hypnotherapy, I have noticed a major difference in how I cope with stress in my life. I am consistently calmer and focused. I am able to deal with the stressors in my life better because I don't allow them to overwhelm me. It is like being a step ahead of the anxiety which enables me to cope, deal with the issue, and simply move on. It is an everyday process of learning and implementing these techniques which have forever changed me. Thank you so much for equipping me with the power to change my life and my health.

Yes, Miracles do happen!! It only took a few hypnotherapy sessions with Bob to prove it. I can tell you that the level of stress & anxiety from problems I am dealing with have totally changed. If an episode comes up (and they surely do with everyday life) I just go to my quiet place, I breathe, and it's automatic. I'm there in my:

By the time I realize where I am, "the so called" issue/problem or stress is alleviated into a silent realm. Physically my whole body relaxes to a point of no return. It's so magical and surreal. I feel absolutely amazing and I owe this to Bob. His calm voice always comes into my head just when I need it the most. His sessions were peaceful, the atmosphere still and the music serene. I would highly recommend hypnotherapy for anyone needing it; especially from Bob Roffman. He makes you feel as comfortable as you can be and also takes the weight off of your shoulders and brings you into a state of euphoria.
"Thanks Bob!! "You rock"!!

Following a stress-related cardiac incident and a gentle nudge from Bob, I tried hypnotherapy. After my first session I felt incredible peace and colors seemed brighter. I found myself taking time to watch the birds and I was smiling and relaxed, even after a hectic and exhausting day. It was amazing! I have now learned that I can practice these techniques anywhere; stuck in traffic, at my desk, even at a meeting. It only takes a few minutes. I begin to breathe deeply and visualize myself sitting in my favorite spot by the ocean. I watch the waves, and soon my anxiety level begins to recede, my breathing slows and my body relaxes. This is especially important because I have fibromyalgia with chronic physical tension and pain. I know that hypnotherapy has changed my quality of life. Not to mention my health. Most importantly, Bob has hung in there with me, patiently working with my skepticism, frustration and crazy schedule. There are therapists and there are therapists. Bob is unique because he takes the time to care about the whole person, utilizing whatever healing techniques, often in combination, that address the particular needs of the individual.
He truly IS the "healing warrior!"
Thanks Bob!
