Remembered hurt what's that? Well it is actually a fascinating thing I have come across in my work and studies over the last few years, both personally and professionally helping clients in my hypnotherapy practice with every kind of diverse stuff like smoking hypnotherapy, anxiety/depression hypnotherapy for example.
Recalled agony is where you suffer some sort of physical injury you get given treatment for it, you improve however the symptoms of the injury never go away although the doctors say nothing is wrong with it and it has healed. What is going on here well you have got an unconscious mind memory of the agony and you are recreating the pain both physically and mentally, so it is like the injury is still there.
What the hell are you talking about this is nonsense!! Well no I've had experience of this myself with an injury to ligaments in my lower back and leg centred on my sacral iliac joint. How does it work you'll ask? Well the injury happens and as a natural defence all the muscles in that area tighten up to attempt to protect the area, next the area may heal while the muscles still protect the area not relaxing. This also causes your posture to modify together with alignment of bones, muscles ligaments for example. This then causes other Problems in that area and maybe other areas of the body.
Now I go along in this state feeling ok perhaps with barely any pain or discomfort while getting comfortable with being this way it just become part of your unconscious the discomfort and pain kind of vanishes into the background! Next thing I may injure the area again which then further enflames the area and injury again and you cycle thru the prior steps in the process of healing I detailed above making things worse.
Now the subsequent bizarre bit of this while the above is occurring you also feel emotions plus feelings towards the injury like agony, hurt, resentment, frustration, helplessness, depression, sadness to name one or two. This has an predilection to increase the agony and suffering of the individual while wounded, it focuses your attention on the injury and intensifies all the feelings (pain) and emotions. What occurs next is you start to direct these emotions and feelings straight at the injury, which further increases tenseness, tightening of muscles etc everything we chatted about earlier.
This is where it actually gets bizarre you really anchor and store these feelings and emotions in the area of the injury as well. As a result this further helps to lock into place the injury or should I say the memory of the injury. You end up being in continued pain which has a tendency to become worse as time goes on, as you are locked in a cycle mentioned above adding more and more emotions, feelings (pain) and physical tension and so on.
You have subconsciously memorised the agony and continue to reproduce the symptoms and maybe the injury on a continual basis. As this continues over a period of time you become used to a fixed level of pain and suffering it then becomes normal and goes into your unconscious mind, you do not notice it any longer except on occasions then it increases in pain again and is back in your conscious awareness for a while, before you also become used to this level and it is going into your unconscious mind. So over time the agony and suffering slowly increases like on a range of 1 to 10, it begins at a 2-3 then a few years later it's a 4-5 and so on generally increasing over a period of time at varying rates.
So what can be done? Well the single thing sometimes that may be done is to approach it from 2 angles both physical treatment and psychological therapy through hypnosis and NLP. There are other modalities that can be used like meditation, meditation you may focused on the difficulty areas consciously reprogramming your muscles to loosen up again while you are receiving physical therapy as well. This may also take a while the injury I had took 15 years to get to a great amount of pain, so this took me about 2 years of both physical treatment, Hypnotherapy/NLP and meditation work on my unconscious mind to heal the old injury.
I was seeing a massage specialist 1-2 times a week over this period of time as well as practicing meditation/NLP. I will qualify this, in retrospect I had a couple of issues which intensified the recovery, two a little twisted vertebra and my pelvis was rotated forward, the massage therapist failed to pick up on this it only got treated after I went and saw some one else, at about 1.5 years into this two years of treatment. So. I may have cut this treatment period down to 6-12 months if this was fixed first!! It had been a lesson for both me and my massage therapist.
Was it worth it? The answer to this is a convincing yes the amount of agony emotional distress this relieved was truly incredible I've not felt better in my whole life. Plus the remainder of my life is going to be a thousand times better because I have cleaned my body of all that mental luggage and pain.
