MERT TREATMENT FOR post-traumatic stress disorder (ptsd)
post-traumatic stress disorder (ptsd)
Post-traumatic stress disorder can be triggered by a dramatic, violent, or stressful event that can change the way we perceive and react to the world around us. Research (Clancy et al 2020) shows that patients with PTSD have brain electromagnetic activity associated with alpha dysrythmia across the visual cortex that results in hypervigilance. This can manifest with symptoms of PTSD such as flashbacks, fear, anxiety, and insomnia.
