Why offer your patients GUIDED VISUALIZATION

Empower your PATIENTS’ healing journey

Too often, the mind and spirit elements are missing in the healing process. We want to make it easy for practitioners to bring in these critical elements to ensure a complete healing experience.

Cultivating hope and positivity in the body’s ability to heal is essential in the recovery process, as is feeling empowered and active in that process.

Guided meditation with visualization is a powerful way to supplement your services, by offering patients something specifically tailored to aid in their recovery mindset.

What listeners are saying

  • Five Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    “I have had lower back pain for most of my adult life and had resigned myself to having it permanently. When I heard about customized guided visualizations for pain, I was excited to try it.I figured it would take several months before I would notice a difference but, literally after 3 days of doing my guided visualization, my lower back pain disappeared! Every once in a while the pain will come back, and I just listen to the visualization for several days and it's gone again! Amazing how something so simple could be so effective!”

    "Visualization is not something I would typically do. However, this low-barrier opportunity seemed easy to do for a brief trial. I found the customized experience helpful in shifting my mindset and creating a more positive attitude. I would do this 15-minute exercise daily and felt the impact all day long. I continue to use this guided visualization to reset my feelings about healing."

    “The biggest impact I've had from using this visualization was improved sleep! Listening right before bed calms my nervous system and allows me to drift off to sleep with no swirling thoughts. I highly recommend working with them."

    “The time of listening to the recordings became the time to check in with my body and to give it space to be, just as it is. The recordings helped me to be with what is, and to learn and trust my own body's wisdom to heal. I understand my condition better because of the time and space the recordings gave me to connect with my pain, but more important with my body as a whole.”

Guided VIsualization FAQs

  • Guided visualization is a relaxation and healing technique that involves dwelling on positive mental images or scenes. For our guided visualizations we focus on imagery that promotes positivity about healing from a wide variety of specific health challenges.

  • Guided visualization is a mind-body technique, which alters your physical condition through the power of your mind. It works because the body tends to respond to the imagery you call up in your mind as it would to a real external experience. It then sends messages to the emotional control center of the brain that can help promote healing, reduce pain, and foster positivity.

  • Yes! There are a multitude of peer-reviewed studies that found guided meditation with visualization to be effective at reducing pain and anxiety and speed up healing. A few examples include effectiveness with preoperative anxiety, patients with cancer receiving chemotherapy, patients with COVID-19, gastrointestinal disorders, elective joint replacement patients, and multiple sclerosis.

  • Generally, guided visualization is considered safe for most individuals. However, it may not be suitable for patients who have certain psychiatric conditions such as psychosis or severe dissociative disorders. Additionally, patients with a history of trauma or those who experience distressing imagery during visualization exercises may require additional support or alternative approaches. It's important for healthcare providers to screen patients and tailor guided visualization interventions to individual needs and preferences.

  • Our guided healing visualizations are typically 15-20 minutes. Each contains a calming and centering exercise to help the mind become receptive to healing imagery, a guided visualization with positive affirmations, and a vision of a future in which patients radiate health and vitality.

  • No, but patients may find that using headphones enhances the experience by minimizing external distractions.

  • If patients find that they struggle to visualize, that’s okay. There’s no one way to benefit from this - suggest that they simply try their best to visualize and experience whatever they can. Over time, and with consistent practice, they may find that their ability to visualize becomes more fluid and intuitive.

  • The calming and de-stressing aspects can occur in the first listen. To get the most long-term mindset and healing benefits from this, we’d recommend that patients try to allow time for this at least 5 days a week for the duration of their recovery depending on their health challenge.
