Somatic Healing:
The Revolution in Corporate Health Care
By David Quigley
The costs of health care have been rising much faster in the last ten years than the rate of inflation, and thus consuming an ever-greater percentage of corporate profits. The most dramatic increases have been in managed care drug costs in the last five years. In spite of these ever-rising costs, the overall quality of health care in America is one of the lowest in the developed world, as measured by such statistics as overall life expectancy. American companies are also saddled with, loss of productivity due to mental and physical illness, absenteeism, and the incidence of workers compensation, disability, and mandated family medical leaves. American Corporations and small businesses alike are suffering as a result, both in terms of profits and overall worker productivity.
Because of these stresses, many companies are attempting to create in house programs for so-called Corporate Wellness. By using in house wellness consultants these companies are hoping to assist their employees in developing healthy lifestyles. In so doing they not only rein in the escalating costs of medical treatment, they increase the overall health of their personnel, increasing productivity, reducing absenteeism, and reducing the loss of trained personnel to worker’s compensation and job burn out. Most of these programs are still in their infancy, but their future is promising.
The Somatic Healing Program created by the Alchemy Institute and currently being implemented by JKHarris & C., the world’s largest tax representation company, represents a tremendous leap forward in the field of corporate wellness. This book explains exactly how such a program can help your business turn the tide on the escalating costs of health care whether you run a fortune 500 Company or a local small business. Consider the following:
America is a nation of the overweight. The consequences of this national pandemic are innumerable, including diabetes, hypoglycemia, chronic pain, especially in the back and legs, and increased risk of heart disease and stroke. While weight loss is a multi-billion dollar industry in this country, one has to wonder if our money is truly well spent, when statistics show Americans continuing to gain weight at the rate of ten pounds per decade. The truth is that very few weight loss regimens address the emotional eating habits and metabolic programs to store fat on the body which live in the subconscious mind and, unless addressed in therapy, ultimately sabotage all our efforts at weight loss. In this text, I will teach you how to recognize these underlying patterns and how to alter them safely and permanently for employees who are motivated to change.
Anxiety and depression are pandemic in our fast-paced society, and have only become worse in the wake of today's crumbling economy. While sales of antidepressant and anti anxiety medications are skyrocketing, no one seems to know how to address the underlying causes of these conditions in the subconscious mind. Somatic healing presents answers to this epidemic which are startlingly simple, and which can free your employees of lifelong drug dependence while giving them the secrets to true happiness.
Addiction to cigarettes, alcohol, and drugs represent a constant threat to individual productivity at the workplace. While I won't pretend to have found an easy answer to these grave challenges, I have developed a number of techniques that can address the underlying causes of these addictive patterns in the subconscious mind, and thus radically increase the chances of recovery for workers who are motivated to change their behaviors… at a fraction of the cost of those ultra-expensive residential treatment programs which (as most of us have discovered) have a very poor long-term success rate.
Autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, psoriasis, and chronic fatigue syndrome are not only a nightmare for their victims but take a huge toll on productivity as well. Somatic Healing will take longer to control these conditions, but has been proven effective in many cases. I myself used these methods to heal myself of chronic rheumatoid arthritis and have been symptom free (and a mountaineer) for 25 years.
Chronic backache and headache are a major source of workplace ills. With Somatic Healing, your employees can easily practice simple movement techniques combined with visualization to erase these pains in a few minutes while eliminating the underlying muscular stresses and correcting the poor spinal alignment which can cause these conditions… something no pain killer can do.
Allergic reactions to pollen, foods, and chemicals common to the industrial workplace and office buildings cause thousands of hours of absenteeism and uncounted millions of dollars in lost productivity every year. Through some simple visualization techniques, I will show how we can greatly reduce or eliminate these reactions for a majority of those who suffer from them.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a major source of pain, lost productivity and disability payments in the corporate world. With Somatic Healing carpal tunnel sufferers can learn a few simple movements which practiced on the job or at home for a few minutes a day will eliminate all the symptoms of their condition while saving the debilitating costs of surgery and avoiding the side effects of massive doses of anti-inflammatory and painkilling drugs.
Work related injuries are a major source of absenteeism, worker's compensation claims, and sometimes expensive lawsuits in a wide variety of industries in America. I will show how in this text how a few simple movements can not only reduce the pain of these injuries but actually assist in healing them in a fraction of the time required by medical treatment alone.
Do these claims sound preposterous? Yes, that is what I would think, if I hadn’t been documenting miracles like these in my work as a hypnotherapist for the past 30 years. But don't take my word for it. Listen to the words of John Harris, founder and CEO of JK Harris & Company, one of America’s most successful entrepreneurs:
"My personal experience with David Quigley's Alchemical Hypnotherapy was a transformational event in my life. After trying many kinds of therapy for a chronic personal problem that was paralyzing my ability to succeed, Alchemy was the only thing that worked, and it worked almost instantly. What I learned is that virtually everything that has happened to us in our lifetime is recorded in our subconscious, but the cognitive rational brain has a difficult time communicating with the subconscious emotional brain. As Jonah Lehrer pointed out in his recent NY Times best seller, How We Decide, our subconscious emotional brain is the origin of virtually all of our decisions. However, when the subconscious emotional brain is clogged up with junk that the rational brain cannot tap into, the way we feel and think and act get out of balance and we make irrational decisions. In addition, because our rational brain does not have the power to override our subconscious emotions we cannot control our emotions and attitudes. These create physical and psychosomatic illnesses. After using these powerful methods to transform my life and my family's lives, I had to make this amazing tool available to our employees. There is no reason for people to live in pain when an Alchemical Hypnotherapist can help them find the source of their pain and cure it!"
