Somatic Experiencing Therapy: Treating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Treating post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD and other physical, spiritual and mental health issues with common medical or non-pharmaceutical treatment methods may not be enough to relieve all the symptoms. You may need to go through a somatic experiencing therapy to totally get rid of the impacts of the past traumatic events on your mind and body. Have you been suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD for a couple of months or years now? Have you tried all types of available medical and non-pharmaceutical treatment methods you know but see no improvement? Some treatment methods may have helped your PTSD for a short term period but the symptoms keep coming back after a few weeks or months. If you have experienced all of these, you may have not yet tried somatic experience therapy. PTSD is certainly among the most difficult conditions and the most debilitating disorders anyone can bear. Treating it can be pretty challenging as its risk to reoccur at some point in the future is very high especially when met with some triggers.
PTSD can be caused by and developed after a very frightening, stressful, or distressing event in life as well as a prolonged traumatic experience. Such experiences include; violent sexual assault or personal assaults, war, serious road accidents, witnessing violent deaths, being a victim of natural disasters, being diagnosed with a life-threatening condition, and sudden death or serious injury of a family member or close friend.
