The Concept of Psycho trauma

With this term, one

understands events which

bring most humans into

highly agitated emotional

states involving very strong

reactions of fear,

helplessness and horror.

Page 4: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

Events that may cause

a Psycho trauma:

Natural catastrophes,

War experiences

Tortures, Rapes,

severe accidents

Page 5: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

If the victim's psychological

resources are unable to cope

with the traumatic

experience, a posttraumatic

stress disorder (PTSD)

develops.

Page 6: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

Possible symptoms of such

posttraumatic disturbance:

positive symtomatology

or

negative symtomatology.

Page 7: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

Positive Symptomatology: Flash backs Nightmares Panic attacks Obsessive thoughts Sleeplessness Hypervigilanz Extreme startle reactions to noise or physical contact Self-mutilation

Positive Symptomatology

Page 8: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

Negative Symptomatology:

Avoidance behavior Social isolation Emotional blunting Drug abuse Dissociation

Negative Symptomatology

In the Federal Republic of Germany

and in Switzerland up to 15 % of

the girls and roughly 6 % of the

boys have been sexually abused,

whereby only cases of severe

abuse involving genital

penetration are analyzed. Severe

physical abuse leading to fear of

death were reported in 6 % of the

children.

Page 10: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

The victim often repress the

trauma from consciousness

although the consequences

continue to victimize the

patient unconsciously,

making his live virtually

unbearable.

Page 11: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

The technique of muscle

testing enables to find such

occult traumata.

Page 12: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

The patient thinks about his or her current

problem while testing the strength of an

otherwise strong muscle. As a result of the

induced unconscious preoccupation with this

thought the muscle in question suddenly

becomes weak. If the patient continues to

think about their problem while, at the same

time, thinking about a previous time: 1, 2, 3, …

etc. years ago, the muscle suddenly becomes

strong again at the time before the trauma

occurred:

That is the time when the patient

experiences themselves to be "in

safety"!

Page 13: AK and Psycho trauma

Switching should be

eliminated

(umbilicus, KI 27!).

Page 14: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

Usually the patient remembers a drastic

event which had occurred at exactly that

point in time being thought about the

muscle being tested regained strength.

If not: One rinses the patient's left ear

passage with ice-cold water. A nystagma

and dizziness sets in and, as a rule, the

patient remembers the previously

repressed psycho trauma.

For energetical protection set micro

needles to the opening and the junction

point of the most suitable extraordinary

meridian.

Sometimes it is necessary to set an

additional micro needle at the suitable

chakra.

Now, all muscles should be

strong and normotonic.

Desensitization:

The patient visualizes the

traumatic situation and indicates

how strongly the picture disturbs

them.

not at all-moderately-strongly-

catastrophically-devastatingly

A strong muscle will be weak,

indeed, all muscles will be weak.

Desensitization

Page 31: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

The patient is visualizing the

traumatic experience and moves

their eyes back and forth in a

defined way 2-3 times. There

will always be found a direction,

which allows the weak muscle to

become strong.

That is the healing direction

of the eye movements!

Page 32: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

While the patient is moving their

eyes back and forth, say 48 times,

they imagine the worst aspect of

the trauma.

New pictures or even body feelings

usually emerge. Find the healing

direction of the eye movement and

process them in the same way.

Page 33: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

The practitioner always and

again asks the patient while

visualizing the trauma wether or

not they still experience it as

being disturbing.

If the estimate finally tends

towards zero, the actual work

has been successfully

accomplished.

Page 34: AK and Psycho trauma

World Congress of Applied Kinesiology 2006Applied Kinesiology in posttraumatic stress disorder Dr. med. R. Leipert

The medicine of India, with its over 5000

years old tradition, has developed

techniques

of eye movements of extreme efficiency.

3-4 series of eye movements with say

10 saccades set the patient onto

a new and healful path of life.

These techniques are really a

gateway to brain and mind!
