Event Details
Hypnosis in the management of pain – Training day with Allan Cyna, Jean Rogerson, Sue Peacock, Maureen Tilford and Ann Williamson
Learn how to use non-pharmacological interventions in the management of pain. Whether it be chronic, acute or procedural there are techniques you can use to help reduce suffering for your patients. Recent studies in the UK have shown a rise in opioid use and attributed deaths. There is clear evidence that opioid use cause widespread and potentially serious harms, when taken long term. Non-pharmacological interventions can enable person centred management of pain and helps the patient take back control.
An opportunity to learn from an international expert in the field – Dr Allan Cyna

Following his PhD on the effects of hypnosis in Childbirth, he has developed a special interest in using hypnotic communication as an adjunct to anaesthesia care and pain management – particularly in paediatric burns and the Obstetric population.
