Breast Cancer CD Wins Innovation and Research Award 2005

'An Aid To Emotional Recovery After Breast Cancer' was authored and recorded by clinical hypnotherapist Michael Mahoney based at Guardian Medical Centre, Cheshire England this innovative CD program was developed after 5 years of research and piloting.

(PRWEB) September 24, 2005 -- On 15th July Mahoney won the Innovation and Research Award 2005 at a business awards ceremony in Cheshire for his work in this area.

Mahoney is no stranger to breaking new ground he also pioneered the IBS Audio Program 100 a self help program for sufferers of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), which now used by IBS sufferers in 34 countries.

An Aid to Emotional Recovery after Breast Cancer is an innovative in-home-use therapy program of guided imagery, relaxation and simple explanation of the mind body connection that provides emotional support and healing to an often-missed patient population, aimed specifically for to those women who have gone through the long, difficult, physical trauma that is associated with breast cancer.

An aid to Emotional Recovery After breast Cancer has now been embraced by more than 90 UK NHS Hospital Breast Cancer Departments and the number continues to grow said Mahoney, with interest also shown by private health care organizations in the UK and USA, along with support groups as far away as New Zealand and Australia.

Mahoney said When physical healing has been completed, even after some considerable time breast cancer survivors often feel drained and their ability to cope emotionally becomes strained when all the support systems provided during treatment are then withdrawn. Survivors are expected to recover quickly now that they are healed physically, but the emotional trauma of their lives are manifested and dealt with long after the treatment is over. An Aid to Emotional Recovery after Breast Cancer serves to fill that gap in the support system in the final stages of healing and recovery".

Mahoney was delighted to receive the Innovation and Research Award saying This award signals the recognition and validation by the business community, in addition to the existing recognition from many in the medical profession" said Mahoney.

My practice is committed to finding new ways of easing distress and suffering in many areas of injury, illness and disease. This CD, along with our other programs of assistance, show complementary medicine has a definite place alongside conventional treatments.

Dr Ian Wilson, Snr. Partner at Guardian Medical Centre added "Mike has been working at a high standard in complementary therapy for many years and this is a further extension of his excellent work. He continues to push the boundaries of care to a higher level."
