The author turned to E.M.D.R. after feeling dissatisfied with the results obtained using traditional methods, especially their general inability to effect the somatic element of chronic pain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book brings together elements from many different approaches, plus bilateral stimulation, to create a comprehensive set of strategies which target multiple aspects of brain functioning. Bilateral stimulation is a bottom-up treatment element of E.MD.R. Research indicates that bilateral stimulation can change brain activity associated with pain (and trauma) more effectively. Psychologically bilateral stimulation stimulates decreased physiological arousal, decreased emotional distress, increased feelings of well-being etc. Although bilateral stimulation is a core element of one of the most powerful trauma therapies, like many elements of other treatment approaches, it appears that it can be safely used as a take-home strategy under non-therapeutic conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelving beneath the psychological experience of pain, the book begins by explaining how the brain works and how pain gets into the brain in a very simple, easy to understand way (you can’t solve a problem unless you understand it). This information is then combined with a holistic view of the physical and emotional effect of pain to create a brain-based map of the 7 key steps necessary for overcoming pain (e.g. taming the pain, managing emotional distress, trauma processing, identity issues etc). The 7-steps are fulfilled via 15 brain-smart strategies (8 x bottom-up and 7 x top-down). Each strategy targets a particular aspect of brain activity as it relates to pain. Because the steps are sequenced in the same order in which the brain processes information (sensory – emotional – cognitive) the change process is intuitive and natural. For example, rather than trying to out-think the pain, imagine finding relief after focusing on the pain plus bilateral stimulation (bottom-up) and then developing new positive beliefs (e.g. ‘I can control my pain’) based on feeling better (top-down).
