Psychological Rehabilitation of Patients with Physical Trauma Consequences by means of Micro-Motion Reactions Restoration Method

Physical trauma and treatment of its consequences lies in the domain of medical specialists: traumatologists, rehabilitologists. However rehabilitation of patients with physical trauma consequences may be also successfully treated by psychologists using “unfinished tasks” expressive approach. This method utilizes micro-motion reactions differentiation principle. Micro-motion reactions restoration method (MRR) is suggested and described. It is primarily oriented at clinical psychologists and rehabilitologists. The unique nature and originality of MRR method lies in ability to trigger development of various multidirectional and contradictory impulses and reactions that had been temporarily stalled in the episode of past physical trauma. This method does not aim at relaxation of tension by means of anesthesia or other forms of isolation of strain. The treatment permits each unfinished motion impulse born during trauma to fully bloom and develop completely. As a result self-reliance and trust in spontaneity of movement is restored. MRR method is best suited for acute trauma consequences. Besides psychologists MRR method may be used by traumatologists, rehabilitologists, and also relatives of patients and parents of children patients. MRR method in the hands of relatives and parents is especially useful for rehabilitation after trauma and surgery not only for the patients but also for the relatives and parents themselves for it helps them to cope with stress of their usual helplessness during long restoration period. Bearing in mind the prospects of development of special rehabilitation units in traumatological and orthopedic departments it is obviously highly advisable to enroll psychologists mastering MRR method in these teams for it may greatly improve the potential of proper successful rehabilitation of patients with trauma consequences.
