PTSD:
Conquering The Invisible
- A
Holistic Approach To Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder -

Teresa De Donato, Ph.D., RND, Chom, Life Strategist
Post-traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD) is a serious mental health condition that each
year disrupts several thousands lives.
What can be done to help its victims to better cope with, manage or
even overcome it? Regardless of what conventional
medicine has accomplished and understood so far by means of clinical
studies, this essay, through its holistic
approach takes into account several methodologies - including
herbalism, homeopathy, hypnosis, relaxation and
meditation techniques along with many others - that can be used
either as stand-alone or as complementary therapies
to help the victims to find different ways to approach the disorder,
have a better and healthier lifestyle and, hopefully,
work towards a full recovery and, whenever possible, even prevention.
