Dr. Marcia Zimmerman had the largest and most successful hypnotherapy clinic in Houston. Through hypnosis she treated eating disorders, smoking cessations, also, alcohol and drug addictions. Her assistants were very qualified in handling these disorders. Dr. Zimmerman's expertise was the treatment of sexual problems, including premature ejaculations and impotence. The method she used treating these illnesses often caused more problems than she cured. She was an excellent hypnotist, but, had let greed and a complete disregard for her patients blind her to their concerns. Unknown to her associates, she had built up a very lucrative business over the years.
John and Paula Ladner had been married for ten years. For the first few years, they never thought one way or the other about having a child. It was just something that if it happened, it happened. About two years ago, Paula was getting worried that she might never get pregnant. When Paula had turned thirty, she went to their family doctor concerned there might be something wrong with her. The tests were all positive and there was no reason she shouldn't get pregnant. Dr. Turner asked her to have John come in for a few tests.
"What are you talking about? John yelled. "There's nothing wrong with me! I don't need a Doctor to tell me what I already know. Just forget it!"
Paula thought it better to drop the subject for the time being. Four months later, her menstrual cycle was still right on time. Temperature charts, holding his sperm inside as long as possible, nothing worked. Paula brought up the subject again after a satisfying love making session. "Honey, please see Dr. Turner for my sake. I'm almost thirty-one and I want a baby before I get any older. It's just a little test and won't take long. Please?"
"Okay honey. Make an appointment for me. I'll do it for you." John finally agreed.
After a complete physical and a sperm count test, Dr. Turner was talking to John in his office. "There's nothing physically wrong with you. Your sperm count is low, but if you stop trying so hard and relax, Paula could still get pregnant. She's also uptight and needs to relax. Here's the card of a Hypnotherapist. She's done wonders for couples in your condition. Talk it over with Paula and decide what you wish to do. I would advise you to use her services, but, that's your decision to make."
Paula was hesitant about being hypnotized and John didn't believe people could be made do things without ever remembering what they did. Both were skeptical hypnotism was the answer to their problem. Both had reservations about making an appointment with a Dr. Marcia Zimmerman. Paula was desperate enough to attempt anything and John went along to stop hearing about having babies. Personally, he didn't care one way or another.
Their first visit started with sitting in an office watching a DVD movie on television. It began with the psychological causes of erectile dysfunction and followed with signs of impotence and its causes. Guilt on the parts of both parties was discussed in great detail. John was impatient and couldn't understand what this had to do with getting pregnant.
After almost an hour, they were shown into the presence of Dr. Zimmerman. John saw an attractive, statuesque brunette that exuded self-confidence. He thought she looked to be in her mid thirties, but was probably ten years older. She had a large comfortable office with very soft music coming from hidden speakers.
After the introductions, Paula and John were comfortably seated in front of her large desk. Sipping on iced orange juice to quench their thirst, after an hour watching a useless movie, seemed to relax the couple.
"You're probably thinking you have been wasting your time, but, I assure you, you have not. The movie was much more important than you may think. While you were there, I was going through your medical records and studying the answers to the questionnaire you each filled out. I believe we can take care of your problem. What I want you to do now, is watch my eyes. When I blink, slowly count each blink. Just relax, listen to my voice, watch my eyes. Count slowly and relax...
That's all for today. See my receptionist on the way out. She will make your next appointment" Dr. Zimmerman finished.
Dazedly, John and Paula rose and left her office. "That was it?" John angrily questioned. "That's all? We haven't been in there ten minutes, and she says make another appointment. Does she think we're crazy to pay for nothing?"
Approaching the receptionist, Paula glanced up at the big clock and gasped. She punched John in the ribs and pointed. They had been with the Doctor for over an hour! What had happened?
Paula made arrangements to see the Doctor the next week. They were told the next session was to have them come in together, but, the Doctor wanted to see them separately.
Later that evening, their problems began. Paula was unusually horny, an itch deep inside that could only be satisfied with a hard cock. John was willing, but not able. No matter what, he couldn't get an erection. They had always enjoyed an excellent sexual relationship until tonight.
"I'm horny as Hell, and all of a sudden you can't get it up! What the fuck is the matter with you?" Paula screamed.
"I don't know, honey. It's never happened before." John was apologetic. "Could seeing that stupid movie and that quack Doctor have anything to do with it? Yelling isn't helping the situation, either."
