As Canada struggles with an opioid crisis, Jeff Ennis, MD, offers a safe alternative for the millions of people who live with chronic pain. It's self hypnosis, a system that can be used to soothe pain without the significant and even potentially deadly side effects of prescription opioids. In this cutting-edge book, Dr. Ennis, a psychiatrist and world-class expert on chronic pain, reviews the disappointing evidence on opioid medications and builds a case for self-hypnosis as a credible alternative therapy. He shares the compelling story of his own lifelong struggle with severe chronic pain and offers step-by-step instructions for self-hypnosis.
