Frequently Asked Questions

What is “The Beyond Surgery Program”?

The Beyond Surgery® Program is a protocol of Integrative Therapies designed to support individuals as they approach and go through any type of medical procedure, or situation which may cause anxiety and discomfort.

For Surgery:  The protocol is a comprehensive pre and post surgical care package which is individually arranged to meet the needs of each client's situation.

Q? Who can benefit from using The Beyond Surgery® Program?

Anyone who is approaching a procedure or situation which will cause them pain, anxiety, or discomfort for a time, can benefit from using The Beyond Surgery® Program.

It is a versatile program which can be adapted to the needs of any medical procedure, surgery, or life situation in which an individual wishes to feel more calm and in control, and to take advantage of optimizing the effectiveness of their standard medical care.

Q? How early do I need to begin The Beyond Surgery® Program?

The timing for an individual’s customized protocol will vary according to the type and complexity of the situation being addressed.

For most minor and major surgeries, it is very beneficial to begin The Beyond Surgery® Program protocol two to three weeks in advance of the procedure; however, if less time is available before a procedure, great benefit will still occur as many of the techniques are used immediately prior to and after a procedure.
