The Rewind for Trauma Therapy

The Rewind Technique was first developed as a treatment for trauma and PTSD by Dr. David Muss, founder and now president of the International Association for Rewind Trauma Therapy and from whom I learned the method.

Dr. Muss's first research paper was published in 1991, citing the cases of nineteen policemen diagnosed with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. After treatment with the Rewind Technique they were followed up for the next two years. All reported being well, having returned to work and none had relapsed. *

Since then The Rewind has helped many people regain their lives after suffering - sometimes for many years - the debilitating and devastating effects of traumatic experiences. 

About PTSD

PTSD arises when the emotion from a traumatic event prevents it from being processed in the way memories usually are. The event then remains fresh in the mind, as if frozen in time, to be replayed as though it were actually happening there and then.

Consequently, the nervous system remains alert (hypervigilance) leading to the diverse range of symptoms we associate with PTSD.

Closure Without Disclosure

The Rewind Technique is a simple, quick yet effective process that dissociates the emotion from the traumatic event to allow it to be processed and become an "ordinary" memory - one that can be recalled voluntarily but without the associated emotions. And it does so WITHOUT the use of hypnosis or requiring the sufferer to discuss any details of the traumatic event, hence its subtitle "Closure Without Disclosure".

The Rewind is a versatile technique that can be used for trauma or any adverse experience or troubling memory. It is sometimes used as a treatment for phobias. All you need is something to work on, though if you do have any physical symptoms, these should have been checked by your doctor beforehand.

The Rewind requires between one and three sessions at £45 per session and is suitable for administration online.
