The fast phobia cure is the name given to a technique originally developed by the psychotherapist Milton Erikson and later developed by Richard Bandler and John Grindler. The technique was first described in the book “Frogs into Princes”.

The technique involves desensitising memories of when the phobic
stimulas has been distressing.

This technique has also been called the Rewind technique and the VK technique (where V stands for Visual and K stands for Kinesthetic)

The advantages of using the fast phobia cure are:

• Performed correctly this is a relatively comfortable way of removing a phobia.
• As the name suggests it can remove a phobia very quickly.
• It is non-voyeuristic. This means that the person performing the fast phobia cure does not have to know any details about the memories that are holding the phobia in place.
