Peaceful Surgery

This mind-body approach, which includes psychologist Peggy Huddleston’s Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster, empowers you to feel calmer before surgery and experience less pain after.
Dr. Huddleston’s five-step process has helped thousands of people and its effectiveness has been documented through studies at Harvard Medical School teaching hospitals.

As a certified practitioner of Prepare for Surgery, I can help you get great results with the 60-minute phone session, alone. Since surgery can bring up underlying issues, and people want to go in with a strong body and immune system, I often also recommend a Bodywisdom Healing session before and after surgery, to strengthen your body and integrate emotions.

Feel calmer going into surgery and recover faster, with less pain.

“In 2020, I had two very complicated, almost back-to-back surgeries which required long recovery times. Lorrie’s support and guidance during this time was invaluable. Before surgery, her work helped me feel more relaxed, confident and hopeful going into surgery. After the surgeries she helped me integrate my emotions, cope with changes in my body and abilities, and shift my beliefs that were making it harder to heal. Lorrie held a vision and a place for me with more possibility than I was willing to believe myself. Under Lorrie’s guidance and techniques, eventually, my attitude and hopefulness returned and I was able to regain many of the functions I was afraid wouldn’t come back, which was a great relief! If you’re about to have surgery or even for post-surgery recovery, I’d highly recommend Lorrie as a trusted support.”

“The surgery went well and I am healing well. There’s no doubt in my mind the mental/energetic work that I did with you, ahead of time, was immensely valuable. After our follow-up session, I started feeling better within a few hours of our time on Friday night. In fact, I didn’t need any more medication that evening or at all since then. My energy is better and my mood is better. I feel like I turned a corner. Thank you so, so much for your care. It’s really been incredible.”
