What if my child goes into trance and cannot come out of it?

When people are in trance, they feel wonderful, and sometimes patients are not in a hurry to return from this wonderful experience. Dr. Lazarus has had extensive training not only in guiding people into trance, but also in helping them return to being fully alert.

When patients practice self-hypnosis alone, they will always return to their usual state of mind. Because trance is so relaxing, occasionally, patients may fall asleep while in trance.

It is important to reiterate here that trance is not sleep! The only time individuals usually fall asleep during trance is when they are tired.

If this happens, then upon awakening, they will once again be in their usual state of mind.

With only a series of 5 sessions, I can happily say that my migraine pain level has decreased by at least 50%, and that I no longer experience severe attacks where I am paralyzed by the pain.

Joe has never been dry at night. At the first meeting, he talked with Dr. Lazarus and received some “homework.” When he returned the following week, he had been dry five out of seven nights! At the second visit, he learned self-hypnosis-and he has been dry ever since.

I had migraines once a day with a really bad one maybe twice a month. After seeing Dr. Lazarus two times, sessions, I haven’t had a migraine since. Dr. Lazarus really helped me out a lot.

Dr. Lazarus had such an impact. Our son doesn’t have any tics anymore. We are in the process of relocating to another city, but Dr. Lazarus is still our pediatrician regardless of where we live.
