Now imagine learning to use this profoundly calm feeling to naturally and safely relieve pain, change a troublesome habit, or improve a health problem.

IN A WORD, THAT’S HYPNOSIS

Hypnosis is a natural, established medical treatment that allows you to open your unconscious mind to new suggestions for healing and change. It is safe, generally free of side effects, and can be used in combination with traditional medical treatments. Best of all, hypnosis is a skill that is uniquely yours.

Once you have it, you can use it — now and in the future.

It’s familiar

It’s safe

It’s effective


JONATHAN SHELDON, MD

A family physician and geriatrician for over 30 years, Dr. Sheldon has studied, practiced, and taught medical hypnosis since 1995. In addition to hypnosis he practices medicine at the Sheldon Sowell Center for Health.

“I asked Dr. Jonathan Sheldon to hypnotize me for control of severe pain and insomnia following a spinal cord and brain injury after a serious bicycle accident. Spectacular results followed four sessions with Dr. Sheldon. As a physician and now a patient I endorse his hypnotherapy in clinical situations where the patient may benefit from this effective modality of treatment.”

— John Altshuler, MD

Professional vs Amateur Hypnosis

In Colorado, virtually anyone can become a “registered psychotherapist” and offer hypnosis. The requirements are minimal, hypnosis training is optional and the risks are obvious.

Hypnosis is not in itself a treatment for anything. Rather, it’s a tool that a licensed professional with education, training and experience may use to treat a particular condition. It’s like a scalpel: anyone can buy one, but you’d never let an amateur use one on you.

“Having studied and practiced hypnosis for over 35 years, I believe it is extremely useful — and a major plus is that its benefits come without the side effects of medication. During the 25 years I have known him, Dr. Jonathan Sheldon has consistently shown a caring and compassionate attitude toward others. His use of hypnosis in his practice is the manifestation of a desire to provide the most appropriate, least invasive treatment to his patients.”
