"I was elated and exclaimed, "Energy work, works!"

I am a self-taught Energy Medicine (EM) practitioner and I had excellent success in mitigating both the pain and the impact of dental surgery using simple techniques contained in the Energy Medicine Daily Routine and the Energy Psychology Basic Recipe.


I began doing the Daily Energy Routine back in April of 2010, after viewing the DVD Introduction to Energy Medicine and reading Energy Medicine and The Promise of Energy Psychology.


In August, I had to schedule dental surgery for early September to have all of my teeth extracted in preparation for getting dentures. My fear of the dentist was so strong that I came close to having a panic attack just thinking about going to the dentist for a routine visit, let alone the procedure I was facing. I knew that I had to do something to alleviate that fear or I would likely cancel the appointment.


Luckily I’d read about the Energy Psychology Basic Recipe. So, while I continued with my Daily Routine I also began doing the Basic Recipe during the three weeks leading up to the surgery. This proved to be very successful. By the time the surgery date approached I was no longer feeling fear or anxiety!


The surgery was originally scheduled for one visit, but complications in removing the lower teeth changed this plan. I had to be rescheduled for another visit the next week for the upper teeth. As I continued to work the Daily Routine and Basic Recipe, any remaining dread about the continuation of the surgery was eliminated.


There was a final complication with the surgery – a few of the root tips had broken off during the procedure. The dentist suggested coming back in two months for evaluation, noting that it was possible that additional surgery may be required to remove those root tips. Happily, this additional surgery proved unnecessary. When I returned two months later, they saw that the root tips had been encased in bone growth and would not cause any further problems. I was ahead of the healing schedule and avoided any additional surgery. I was elated and exclaimed, "Energy work, works!"
