Overview

The unique approach to cancer care described in this heart-warming book provides healthcare professionals with the means to revolutionize the lives of their patients. Whether they are having palliative or curative treatment, are in remission or are simply living with cancer, the clearly explained techniques help them to cope in ways that no other approach makes possible. Drawing on a wide range of disciplines, Clare Rushworth uses hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, meditation and relaxation to help patients live with the implications of their condition. Her techniques enable them to reduce stress, gently and easily overcome problems such as phobias connected with certain treatments, and learn to live more fully in the moment. Throughout, she places strong emphasis on improving rapport and communication by non-verbal methods, which can quickly establish a positive relationship with patients so that they become more relaxed and receptive. Cancer has become the most dreaded disease of our age, but many people have lived through it and continue to lead happy and useful lives. Half the battle is overcoming fear, and with this book doctor, nurses, therapists and counselors can guide patients to a frame of mind that encourages optimism, resilience and the will to deal with the problem in the most positive and curative way.
