The illustration below shows specific brain functions. We
know that Post Trauma Disorder takes place in the oldest part of the
brain, or the ‘Reptilian’ brain. The ‘fright and flight’ response takes
place here when danger is present. Whenever there is severe trauma this part of the brain replays the events as it they were happening in the present. Advanced drug-free
technology restores balance to the central nervous system &
relieves the most severe symptoms of Post Trauma Disorder (PTD).
· The human brain is highly evolved, yet at the same time it retains the instinct–driven brain of our reptilian
ancestors.
· The limbic system is part of what’s called the ‘reptilian brain’, or the oldest part of the brain. It regulates
basic emotions, drives and instincts, such as the ‘fright and flight’ response when danger is present.
· The central nervous system is highly vulnerable to stress and can be severely damaged. When this
happens a condition develops called Post Trauma Disorder.
· Raw emotions and instinctual reactions create intense anxiety, depression and sleep disorders.
· This part of the brain lacks logical thought or any awareness of consequences. Symptoms of Post
Trauma Disorder can disrupt every area of life.
