Smoking Cessation
Kelly and Ed B., Del Mar, CA, 1998
Kelly: Vlasta, Thank you for all your encouragement and care. We couldn't have had our baby without the skills you had taught us...I was relaxed and kind of dreamy all throughout the labor... I only felt a pressure of contractions and a very mild discomfort right before Erick was born... Thank you!
Ed: ...I never expected to see Kelly so relaxed and pain-free without any drugs... Everything happened just like we planned and practiced... Thank you for giving our son a completely safe and drug-free start.
Diana and Jake D., El Cajon, CA, 1999
Diana: I had a terrible birth experience with our first child. I heard of hypnosis and wanted to try it. I am very pleased I did... My labor was short and comfortable. In fact, even the recovery was much easier than with our first son...
Jake: My wife's labor was very comfortable... I would recommend hypnosis to everyone.
JoAnne and Tim G., San Diego, CA, 2000
JoAnne: I really enjoyed all hypnotic session but the sessions with my husband were truly special... I am sure that these sessions brought us closer together... When I went into labor, I was so relaxed... My husband knew exactly what to do and how to make me feel completely relaxed and comfortable... I was surprised that the contractions felt like waves of pressure - exactly how we rehearsed them... The pushing stage came and ended very fast... I though that my nurse was joking when she said that she could see our baby-girl's head... and with the next push she was out... I am so glad that I used hypnosis...
Tim: I had a great time going to the sessions with JoAnne and practicing what we had learned... but I was not completely convinced that things would work... When JoAnne went into labor, I was at work. When I got home - about 30 minutes later, it was time to go to the hospital... It was amazing to see her so comfortable... At times, she almost looked like she was asleep... and she was so relaxed between the contractions...the nurses couldn't believe it... Thank you, Vlasta.
Grace and Eric S., La Jolla, CA, 2001
Grace: Vlasta, I wanted to thank you for everything you have taught us about the mind/body connection through hypnosis. Thanks to you and hypnosis, we not only had a short and easy labor, but our baby has been so content and happy... We will do refresher hypnosis sessions before we have our second baby...
Eric: I am still amazed how effective hypnosis was for my wife...

Hypnosis for Pain Control and Management
Joe B., San Diego, CA 1994
Joe: As a fireman, I know the risks... but I was not prepared for was the overwhealming and everpresent intensity of the burn pain that I experienced... after a couple of days it took over my life... morphene and other drugs did not help much... I was surprised by the pain relief from our first session... I kept thinking that the pain would return... that night I practiced the things you taught me and continued to repeat your suggestions... I slept through the whole night... Thank you so much!
Marian W., La Jolla, CA 1996
Marian: Vlasta, my friends and even my own doctor laughed at me when I said that I decided I woulnd't have any more migraine headaches... You help and encouraged me to use self-exploration to learn more about the triggers for my "past migraines" ... how I may have contributed to them and what purpose they used to serve... You were always there... you followed up... you guided me when nobody else believed in me... I have been migraine free for the past nine months - with no medication whatsoever... Thank you!
