Preparing for Surgery: A Holistic Guide to Healing

Undergoing surgery can feel daunting, but you can take proactive steps to support your body and mind for a smoother recovery. This guide shares natural remedies, practical tips, and ways to create a positive, healing environment before, during, and after your procedure.

Pre- and Post-Surgery Supplements for Healing

To promote healing and reduce bruising or swelling, consider these natural remedies:

• Arnica and Staphysagria: Take 3 pellets of each the night before surgery. After surgery, continue taking 3 pellets of each every few hours to support recovery.

• Pain Management: Use essential oils like Frankincense and Copaiba (from Young Living or doTERRA). Combine 5 drops of each in a gelatin capsule. Take 2 capsules every few hours as needed for pain relief.

• Chinese Medicine for Healing: Try Collection Formulas Flex TMX, a Chinese herbal blend designed to speed up recovery. Follow the dosage instructions on the product.

• Liver Support: Start a liver-supporting supplement, such as Puri T Liver (or a similar product containing milk thistle, dandelion, or other liver-friendly herbs), one week before surgery. This helps your body clear anesthesia more efficiently. Continue until you feel back to your normal self.

IV Therapy for Enhanced Recovery

If possible, schedule IV therapy sessions to boost your body’s resilience. Visit a local provider like Purifico Med Spa, GIVMOBILEIV, or another reputable clinic. Aim for:

• 2-3 sessions before surgery to prep your body.

• 1-2 sessions after surgery to aid recovery.

These infusions can deliver vital nutrients to support your immune system and overall healing.

Creating a Healing Environment in the Operating Room

Your surgical experience is about more than just the physical—it’s also about the energy and atmosphere around you. Here’s how to foster a positive, healing environment:

• Prayer and Connection: Ask your surgeon, nurses, and anesthesiologist to pray with you before the procedure, if this aligns with your beliefs. This can create a sense of calm and unity.

• Curate the Music: Request that the operating room plays music that uplifts you. Provide a playlist of your favorite songs, especially those with personal or spiritual significance. If you don’t have a specific playlist, review and approve the team’s music choices to ensure they feel soothing and positive.

• Encourage Healing Words: Ask the surgical team to speak only words of healing, love, and positivity during the procedure. Politely request they avoid cursing or negative language while you’re in the operating room.

• Bring Laughter and Joy: Before surgery, invite the team to sing a fun song with you, share jokes, or engage in lighthearted moments to ease your nerves. Laughter can reduce stress and set a positive tone.

• Post-Surgery Comfort: If allowed, bring your phone and earbuds to the recovery room so you can listen to your favorite playlist as you wake up. Surrounding yourself with familiar, uplifting music can promote a sense of calm and healing.

Final Thoughts

By combining natural remedies, IV therapy, and a nurturing environment, you can support your body and spirit through surgery. These steps help you approach the experience with confidence, knowing you’re surrounded by healing frequencies and care. Always consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplements or treatments to ensure they’re safe for your specific situation.

Wishing you a smooth surgery and speedy recovery!
