Remember the older moves where a psychiatrist would dangle a large pocket watch in front of someone's face and swing it back and forth like a pendulum to hypnotize them? It seem kinda of hocus pocus yet, there are studies that have bee done on this repetitive motion and how it affects people.

I can't remember where exactly I found this picture, but of course, it caught my eye. It known as EMDR, Eye Movement Densitization and Reprocessing.

Here's a study that was done:

Some highlights:

"EMDR therapy is an empirically validated treatment for trauma, including such negative life experiences as commonly present in medical practice."

"EMDR therapy provides physicians and other clinicians with an efficient approach to address psychological and physiologic symptoms stemming from adverse life experiences."

"Its ability to rapidly treat unprocessed memories of these adverse experiences has important implications for the medical community, as they appear to be the foundation for an array of clinical symptoms."

"One of the components used during the reprocessing phases is composed of dual attention stimuli in the form of bilateral eye movements, taps, or tones"

'Importantly, while CBT trauma treatments involve one to two hours of daily homework to achieve positive effects, EMDR therapy uses none."

Second Study:

This one is rather chilling. It gives a hypothetical story of a girl that was raped and how EMDR therapy and how someone can rather quickly "get over" the rape and become desensitized.

IF CPP and what we feel could be taking place there or with those connected to this place can bring children around PingPong tables for "therapy" for what they have been through, to learn to accept or desensitize what has happened to them, rather quickly, it could explain why some of these kids are easily abused.

I just tapped into this therapy and have more to research but wanted to see if anyone else has heard of this?
