The effect of two sessions of PBSP psychotherapy on brain activation in response to trauma-related stimuli. The pilot fMRI study in traumatized persons

Original language description

In the pilot study a group of 7 traumatized persons with symptoms indicating the need for psychotherapeutic intervention was investigated using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMR) before and after a brief treatment program (2 days) using Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP). PBSP is an innovative, mind-body psychotherapeutic method of emotional reeducation creating cognitive and emotional alternatives to traumatic memories. The traumatic imagery procedure was performed by the visual presentation of specific trauma evoking figures selected by the patients prior to the treatment procedure and shown to them during the fMR scanning. After two sessions of PBSP we found decreased depressiveness (BECK, p ? 0.05) and a trend for improvement in traumarelated symptoms (IES-R) and anxiety (SAS). We found that before PBSP treatment the pattern of brain activation (fMR) was similar to post-traumatic stress disorder: deactivation of anterior cingulate and frontal regions and activation of
