Patient’s psychological state of mind directly affects his/her health condition. Our emotional state regulates the production of numerous biologically active substances (neurotransmitters, hormones, enzymes) that have a direct effect on the functions of the internal organs. Panic attacks, stress, depression, anxiety disorders - all of these can lead to many somatic disorders.
These are some conditions, which have been proven to be caused by the psychogenic factor:
- Hypertensive disease
- Myocardial infarction
- Hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke
- Erectile dysfunction (impotence)
- Female infertility
- Male infertility
- Gastric or duodenal ulcer
- Psoriasis
- Nonspecific ulcerative colitis
- Obesity
Such patients need to treat not only the main disease, but also need to eliminate one of the causes of its development. This is achieved through the psychosomatic rehabilitation. The main goal is the normalization of the patient’s psycho-emotional profile, his/her social adaptation, elimination of the negative impact of the psychosomatic component on the state of health.
