Reed Eye Movement Acupressure Psychotherapy

The REMAP process is a sensory stimulation desensitization response (SSDR) method designed to reduce or eliminate trauma, panic attacks, phobias and other intense emotional responses.  The process utilizes cognitive, behavioral, affective, and sensory stimulation (eye movement and tactile) interventions.  The psycho-sensory, tactile interventions include the stimulation of acupressure points that have been shown to produce changes in brain functioning and within the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.  SSDR types of methods would include such treatments as EMDR, REMAP and EFT.  REMAP is similar in some ways to Systematic Desensitization which desensitizes stress responses by pairing peripheral muscle relaxation with the stressful memory or experience.  But in the case of REMAP, the relaxation response is produced not just at a peripheral muscular level but also in the deeper regions of the brain where the body's alarm system (located in a part of the brain called the amygdala) is also calmed.  This produces a faster and more comfortable path to easing emotional pain.

The REMAP process training has been presented twice at Ohio State University Medical School.  REMAP lectures and training seminars have also been presented in Canada, Guatemala (Central America) and throughout the United States.

The REMAP process has two branches, Quick REMAP and the Full REMAP Protocol.

Here is some brief information about both and links that will let you find out more.

Quick REMAP provides simple and easy to use interventions that can reduce emotional distress fast.  Quick REMAP is based on interventions studied at prestigious institutions such as Harvard Medical School and the Yale School of Medicine.  It also includes some of the most potent interventions from traditional Chinese medicine.  Yet, these techniques are so simple that they can be used as self-help tools.
