PTSD is, at its core, a memory disorder. Studies show that PTSD-related memories hold on to an imbalance of neurotransmitters that was created as a response to the trauma when it happened. This causes a dysfunction of the neural circuitry, resulting in the behavioral changes typically associated with PTSD symptoms, including: emotional detachment, distorted perception of self and others, loss of interest in life and activities, depression, aggressiveness, sleep disturbance, self-destructive behavior, and re-experiencing through nightmares, flashbacks and intense physical reactions. The Quresta treatment method has been proven effective in treating and eliminating these, most common symptoms, as well as others, unique to each individual.

The Quresta treatment works by controlling the position in the brain’s hierarchy of the causal traumatic memories responsible for PTSD. This is done through a short, clinician-supervised visualization process that retrieves and alters the memories of the event. The process was uniquely developed and tested as part of the RTM Protocol™ method.

Quresta treatments can be effectively carried out either in-person or remotely, by a clinician certified in the RTM Protocol™. Successful, lasting remission is usually accomplished in 3 to 5 one-hour sessions, during which the position of the traumatic memories are re-positioned in the brain’s neural circuitry to a place that no longer evokes the PTSD symptom responses.
