As therapists, it is important to have a good range of techniques to hand that we can insert easily into any therapy session. The Rewind Technique is one that is simple and effective and can be easily looped into a larger session or be a session in itself. I find the Rewind Technique a valuable addition to my toolkit and one that enable the client to remain in a very calm state throughout.

I had great results with a client who was recovering from a bad motorcycle accident and still had chronic pain in his upper back. I noticed a movement habit that he had every time he stood up, he would arch his back and you could see on his face he was checking to see if the pain was still there. We generated an alternative physical pattern which helped but it wasn’t until we did the Rewind Technique that he finally was able to stop checking back and move forward without pain.

I found the Rewind Technique to be an invaluable addition to my toolbox. The information Mark & Roger provide is thorough and more importantly easy to understand and implement… this one course in itself has made me a much better practitioner.

The Rewind Technique has been a phenomenal addition to my toolbox. Actually, the best since I was certified as a hypnotherapist. I’m also a psychotherapist and this technique has quickly and easily healed my traumatized clients without retraumatizing them. I’m extremely grateful to have found Uncommon Knowledge and the Rewind Technique course.

One client felt so healed (“I just don’t feel connected to that memory anymore. I know it happened but it doesn’t feel like it really happened…”), that we are doing it again for another phobia. The first one was a severely traumatic experience that caused PTSD, and now we will be working to neutralize the phobias that developed because of the original trauma.

An excellent, well laid out course that helps to build confidence and skill. Mark and Roger’s use of several types of training techniques helped me to maintain a high level of interaction and interest. Great course. I have a massive amount of respect for Mark, his skill, ability and the experience he brings. He has helped me in many ways to be a better therapist. I liked that I could take my time, do a module then practice and then come back to it. Some things I did twice and others I felt I had a good grasp of I was able to move forward quickly. I like the mixtures of learning techniques as I learn better when there is a variety of learning methodologies.

I found the Rewind course really interesting and presented in a professional and straightforward manner which gave me confidence to start using it with clients as soon as l had completed it. I enjoyed doing the training online as l could do it at my own pace. Being able to access the tutorials, Q&A’s, and other resources as often l want is really helpful, also knowing that there is a professional team to contact if required. I will definitely do more online CPD courses with Uncommon.

l have learned a new technique for helping future clients with trauma/phobia issues, l have the printouts l need for future reference, and I found it much easier to learn in the comfort of my own home. No travelling costs and preferable to some of the training courses l have attended often sitting in a busy room, taking notes, and watching a PowerPoint presentation.

This course enables therapists to receive training in the Rewind Technique in a very pragmatic way, accommodating a wide variety of learning styles. Techniques for treating clients with trauma are evolving all the time, so it was really appropriate for my needs, as well as future clients at this time. What was more important for me was that it was safe to use and administer without distress to clients.

I tried the technique on myself on completing the course. The treatment for trauma was successful and I am now able to live my life again, free from flashbacks, anxiety, and agitated depression.

This is an excellent course that allowed me to feel completely at ease with an essential technique that had previously intimidated me. The technique has worked well on spiders, a woman who was gang-raped by 3 older guys at age 16, a car accident. etc… The people report knowing the memories are back there somewhere but not really being able to access them as before and definitely not having old emotions. I highly recommend the Rewind Technique as an integral part of any therapeutic toolbox!

Rewind Technique is an excellent tool to have in your therapy room to work with clients’ unwanted traumatic memories. It’s a very safe technique. I have learnt abridged versions before. But this version is much more complete. Thanks Mark and team for bringing together a very comprehensive training package.

I enjoyed The Rewind Technique course immensely, it’s totally relevant to what I do on a day to day basis. I especially liked the mix of theory and video learning. It fired me up to get out there and try a few things and I was really happy (and more comfortable practicing) when I received my first lot of really positive feedback – results, results, results – that’s what it’s about.

I had a client who hadn’t flown for nearly 25 years. We took a little time to go through periods of turbulence and fear that had affected her. She texted me from Portugal a week later – it was one of the best texts I have received and one of the best she has sent, I expect. I was also able to Rewind over Skype to an ex Royal Marine who was working in the Alps. He sat and relaxed in his Land Rover somewhere up a mountain and we worked through things which he has found really useful. I thought this would be especially testing but worked great.

I find that with most people it will either get rid of, or significantly reduce the fear or phobia in just one session. Once you know the technique, you can confidently ‘fix’ simple fears, anxieties and phobias with confidence. I use this technique often, and have used it for everything from simple problems such as nerves about giving a presentation at work, to more complex problems such as childhood abuse, to long term ‘known traumas’ such as getting lost as a child, to straightforward phobias such as fear of injections. Learn it, and you’ll have a great tool for your therapy tool box, which is flexible and adaptable for different clients and different situations. It also shows a client, very quickly, how you can begin to help them with life-long problems. I once did the technique on a recovering alcoholic, who had a childhood memory of a chair being thrown out of a window by an angry parent. It had haunted him for 50 years. It was gone in 20 minutes. He couldn’t believe it!
