Effective Treatment for Trauma and PTSD.
Traumatic memories or PTSD, if left unresolved can ruin the quality of our life. However, this does not need to be the case. Contact us today for Fast Effective treatment and learn how these emotional fears can be resolved; sometimes in as little as one session.
Features of a Traumatic Memory or (PTSD):
Panic attacks
Repeating and often inexplicable feelings of terror
Intrusive memories
Nightmares
Sudden irrational anger outbursts
Depression and other unpleasant emotional states
Intense flashbacks, hallucinating the event, as if in the present
Sudden uncontrollable sweating, trembling and other automatic nervous/physical reactions
Hyper vigilance
Loss of confidence
Do you suffer from anxiety, fear and/or panic attacks related to an accident, abuse, rape, violence, a fire, terrorism or panic attacks? Or maybe you suffer from PTSD or flashbacks?
By de-traumatizing the memories related to the incident you can be free to live your life again. The Fast Trauma and Phobia cure was developed to do just that. Usually in just one session clients can be free to go about their lives again without the restrictions of “out of date" worries. The same can be said for Phobias. Even the most severe cases can be quickly treated, also usually in one session.
Thousands have been successfully treated and are back to leading normal lives, so why go through this any longer?
Treatment is non-voyeuristic (It is suitable for victims of sexual assault, beating or any kind of humiliation, as the victims do not have to tell the therapist details of what happened).
Like one that on a lonesome road, Doth walk in fear and dread,
And having once turned round walks on, And turns no more his head;
Because he knows, a frightful fiend, Doth close behind him tread.
- Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
So often times it happens,
That we live our life in chains,
And we never even know,
- We have the key.
"Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadows"
- Aesop
Additional Detailed Information about Trauma.
There are two kinds of bad memories. Some fade slowly, so that a year or so later the memory of the car crash, or whatever it was, is no longer intrusive, and in time it goes away only to be recalled as an ordinary narrative memory about some unfortunate incident you once experienced.
Traumatic memories do not fade in the same way, and as time goes by they may become worse. These memories are usually connected with a life threatening or other serious event and are more deeply embedded in the brain as a 'survival template'. If they are not treated they may continue to fire off strong emotional reactions at inappropriate moments and thereby cause trouble for the rest of the sufferer's life.
Trauma is encoded by a structure in the limbic system called the amygdala. Every time someone suffering from PTSD is asked to recall the trauma, they go so fully back into the memory, into the trance state of the trauma, that they relive the trauma as if it were happening now.
Any process that cures PTSD has to keep the person's awareness focused in the present so that the higher cortex can reframe the memory as a past event and put it in a realistic perspective.
When a deeply traumatic event occurs, however, the emotional reaction can be so strong that it remains coded in wordless form in the amygdala, permanently retained there as a survival pattern in case it is suddenly needed again in a similar future emergency.
The amygdala of someone who develops PTSD has literally been imprinted with the pattern of the trauma, which contains all the information surrounding the event. It is because pattern matching is a metaphorical process - the amygdala is looking for something like something else - that people experience flashbacks and other severe alarm reactions when the amygdala spots anything with any similarity to some aspect of a traumatic event.
Effective treatment involves recoding the traumatic memory as a low arousal memory. Research carried out by Joseph LeDoux and his colleagues shows that when we recall a memory it has to be recoded. That is to say, new proteins have to be synthesized in the amygdala to reconsolidate the memory. If we can find a way, therefore, to get the memory recalled in a low arousal state, it will be recoded as a low arousal memory and the traumatic reaction pattern will be dissolved.
We need to be in a relaxed state for the feedback mechanism to work. Once the information is processed in this way it becomes a normal memory. It will always remain an unpleasant one, but part of normal functioning.
Furthermore, when the trauma template is released, attention capacity is freed up. People literally become more intelligent again when the data-processing capability of the brain is no longer devoted to scanning input from the environment for a match to the threat.
