Dick Schwartz’s years of clinical practice and available research supports that IFS can have an effect on medical syndromes. “Parts” might be using the body to communicate about unhealed traumas or unmet needs and these “parts” can affect our bodies when they have no other route to get through to us. IFS can help those parts realize they don’t have to do that.IFS founder and family therapist Dick Schwartz initially developed IFS as an effective treatment for hard-to-treat eating disorders, but it has since been proven to be an evidence-based treatment for many mental illnesses, as well as rheumatoid arthritis.Doctor, author, and trauma-informed medicine teacher Lissa Rankin, MD was on a decade-long quest to research her seventh book Sacred Medicine: A Doctor’s Quest To Unravel The Mysteries of Healing when she bumped into the IFS model. Anecdote after anecdote from IFS therapists and their clients who were treating their traumas using IFS revealed a curious phenomenon: when people’s traumas were getting treated with this cutting-edge treatment, at least sometimes, their mystery illnesses and chronic symptoms seemed to be improving.Lissa’s deep dive into IFS was a complete game-changer in her search for answers to why some people seem to have radical remissions from seemingly “incurable” or “terminal” illnesses- and others don’t. This insight led her to write a revised edition of Mind Over Medicine, the New York Times bestseller published in 35 languages that was the centerpiece for a PBS special and several TEDx talks. She now trains physicians and therapists in the Whole Health Medicine Institute, using an IFS-informed approach to helping patients and clinicians optimize their chances of becoming “miracle prone.”Lissa Rankin and Dick Schwartz co-taught the sold-out IFS As Medical Treatment workshop at the last in-person IFS Conference and are expanding on what was taught there to learn an IFS-informed approach to working with the 6 Steps To Healing Yourself from Mind Over Medicine so you can help your patients, clients, yourself, or your loved ones optimize your chance for the best medical outcome. There are no reviews yet.Add a Review Cancel replyYou must be logged in to post a review.
