IBS AUDIO PROGRAMME 100™
Britain has led the way in many areas of medicine and health care throughout the centuries. Penicillin was developed here; the hospice movement was created; an effective treatment aid for Irritable Bowel Syndrome was devised.
A what?
An effective treatment/aid for Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
But what is that?
IBS, as it is commonly known, effects 1 in 5 people in the UK at this time, and countless millions around the world. It is not life threatening but it can put great restraints upon life and bring a halt to the possibility of normal living. It is not curable by medication as it is far more of a functional disorder for which orthodox medicine has no cure.
But you say that “an effective treatment for IBS (has been) devised”
Yes - That is true, and it is improving the lives of countless people around the world where the programme has been made available.
A patient in Michigan said - “It took only a few months to get my entire life back.”
In Canada a patient said - “My improvement has been remarkable. IBS no longer runs my life.”
In the UK a patient said - “This is an investment into my future and my health.”
So, why have we not heard about this programme if it has the potential to be as life changing as you say?
A good question. Perhaps it is largely because in this country we are reluctant and embarrassed to talk about our bowels and their workings. With such a large number of people suffering IBS now is the time to come out of the closet, literally, and let people know that there is help there to be had and it has been proven to be extremely effective, a statement backed up by sufferers and health professionals alike.
So what is this program?
IBS AUDIO PROGRAM 100™ is a programme devised and developed by Michael Mahoney, one of the UK’s leading Clinical Hypnotherapists. Through the medium of four audio CDs and a booklet it is designed to unlock the power of the mind to help the body.
It has long been appreciated that hypnotherapy could be beneficial to the sufferer of IBS, but it is thanks to the research and development of Michael Mahoney that this has been finely tuned to achieve the most effective self-help tool ever made available to IBS sufferers. Michael has ploughed much of his time, his own money and his expertise into research into IBS and his devotion has reaped true rewards in that it has been noted in trials that significant improvement has been noticed in upwards of 80% of sufferers who have used the programme.
In the past patients seemed to have to suffer with little respite. Now, with the aid of the IBS AUDIO PROGRAM 100™ we see a revolution taking place. The lives of the sufferers can now be changed with great benefit being derived. For many they see the first chance in years to lead a normal or relatively normal life. They can embark upon a journey from tension and anxiety to calm; form pain to comfort; from imprisonment to freedom. In its way this just has to be as earth shattering and freeing as penicillin was when it first appeared
A gastroenterology nurse stated, enthusiastically,” this programme is a beneficial tool in addressing IBS symptoms and I would recommend it to my patients.”
At time of writing the programme is being used in around thirty countries worldwide, and discussions are in progress to widen this.
The original programme was launched at the YOUR HEALTH SHOW in London in 1998, and since then has gained acclaim throughout the world as the most effective therapy programme available for IBS sufferers. The programme offers a detailed introduction to hypnotherapy and to IBS as well as five actual hypnotherapy procedures. It is simple and effective to use within the privacy of one’s own home or in other more formal settings, and lasts for 100 days, following a carefully structured plan of campaign.
The programme contains a CD which is aimed to help the families and friends of IBS sufferers understand the condition
Michael Mahoney is a member of the Hypnotherapy Association, founder of the UK Register of IBS Therapists and is also a member of the prestigious International Functional Brain-Gut Research Group. He is an associate member of the Primary Care Society for Gastroenterology.
Heather Van Vorous in her book “The First Year IBS” devotes many pages to the work of Michael Mahoney and the development of the programme. She states that the programme “has achieved dramatic success in controlling IBS symptoms” and adds “I hope the treatment becomes a standard option presented to patients by their physicians.”
This programme can truly change lives and deserves the opportunity of being known to a far wider audience. In the early days Michael Mahoney was distressed at the number of patients he was seeing who had literally nowhere else to turn. He studied their needs, devised and developed therapeutic procedures and eventually came up with the Programme that is now so widely respected.
“Those first patients and their desperation will be remembered for the rest of my life “ says Michael Mahoney.
It is great to think that there are now increasing numbers of people whose lives had been devastated by the IBS who can now smile back and say that they will remember Michael Mahoney and the IBS AUDIO PROGRAM 100™ for the rest of their lives too - as now they have lives they can actually enjoy.
