The xenon trance – it opens new opportunities for a psychotherapy of opioid dependence

08 May 2009 г.

In case of opioid dependence we can clearly see that practically all the basic structural elements of thinking (sensation, perception, concept, representations) get a deformed, distorted nature. Interpretation of reality, interpretation of an occurring event, self-estimation become inadequate. Disturbances are found at a formal, logic level. Thereby both sensual-image component of thinking and interpretive one suffer.

Physicians of doctor N.V. Klimchenko’s clinic for the first time in an addictology, alongside with active, pathogenetic psychopharmacologic therapy, in the complex program of opioid dependence treatment have worked out and use in practice method of medical xenon trance with target video-and audio-suggestive support. Practical results of psychopathologic researches in patients receiving such combined treatment show that these patients quickly rather reach cumulative antipsychotic effect of therapy and the symptomatology of a pathological urge to a drug is arrested.
