Learn to relieve PTSD and phobias in one session

Treating phobias or PTSD can be a scary prospect

Any therapist who has dealt with clients suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or phobias knows how problematic these anxiety disorders can be to treat. It was once believed that the only way to effect change was to make the sufferer get emotional again. We either had to hope that behavioural exposure therapy would de-condition the response, or use the now-discredited 'critical incident debriefing'. (Thank goodness it is now widely known that these approaches make things worse, not better).

The beauty of neutral calm

The Rewind Technique involves having your client review problem memories from phobic or traumatic times - but allows you to keep them calm at the same time. This keeps the treatment a neutral - even pleasant - experience for the client.

In addition, the Rewind Technique can be performed without the therapist knowing the content of the problem. Clients suffering from particularly horrific traumas no longer have to put themselves through fresh trauma by describing the event all over again.

Great relief in a single session for over 90% of clients

Experience has shown us - and thousands of other practitioners - that using this approach can reduce over 90% of phobia and PTSD symptoms by 80% or more in a single session.

We know that sounds almost too good to be true, but it's not a claim we make lightly. Take our course of live conference calls and video tuition, and we promise that you will find treating your next three phobic or PTSD clients to be an uplifting and exciting experience - for both you and them! If not, we will give you a full refund of your course fee.

Imagine how astonishing it can be to see the rapid recovery of, say, someone who has struggled for 20 years with flashbacks, anxiety, and panic attacks due to a rape in her teens.

Or the sudden lifting of anxiety-driven depression in someone who has struggled along with PTSD for decades.

Four-year research study supports our claims for the Rewind Technique (as do all the testimonials on the right!)

A recent four-year study of the Rewind Technique's use at Nova Trauma Support Services (part of the Bernardo's charity) has shown remarkable results supporting the efficacy of the technique. The Nova team provide therapeutic support to individuals and families who have been psychologically traumatized, primarily as a result of their experiences in Northern Ireland.

The team worked with forty-seven people, twenty-six of whom would have met the criteria for PTSD, and treated 57% of them with only the Rewind Technique. After treatment, the results of the study showed, none of the forty-seven clients met the criteria for PTSD. All sub-symptoms associated with PTSD also showed a significant reduction, and five categories had zero reports post-treatment.

Martin Murphy, lead clinician in the study, said, "...the case notes repeatedly identified not only relief from symptoms but also the emergence of qualitative positive changes in the individual's daily lives." Murphy suggests that the Rewind Technique is effective in children as young as 8 and in adults at least to the age of seventy and is effective for both single and multiply traumatized individuals.
