Frequently Asked Questions
About
Trauma & PTSD
What is trauma?
Trauma is a deeply distressing or disturbing experience that overwhelms an individual’s ability to cope, often resulting in lasting emotional, psychological, and physical effects. It can stem from events such as accidents, violence, abuse, natural disasters, or loss. Trauma affects the brain and body, potentially leading to conditions like PTSD, anxiety, depression, and various health issues. The impact of trauma varies widely, influenced by factors such as personal resilience, support systems, and the nature of the traumatic event.
What is PTSD?
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD, is a more severe mental health condition triggered by experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. It is characterised by symptoms such as intrusive memories, flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and uncontrollable thoughts about the event. Individuals with PTSD may also exhibit avoidance behaviours, negative changes in thinking and mood, and heightened reactions. These symptoms can significantly impair daily functioning and quality of life.
What is rTMS and how does it help treat trauma & PTSD?
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. It targets specific areas involved in mood regulation and emotional processing, primarily the prefrontal cortex. By inducing electrical currents, rTMS improves neural activity and connectivity, leading to reduced symptoms of trauma and PTSD. This therapy is particularly beneficial for individuals who have not responded to traditional treatments like medication and psychotherapy.
