For the treatment and rehabilitation of autism, mental retardation, mental retardation, mental retardation, cerebral palsy, anorexia, neuroses, etc. in children and adults, the research institute uses Professor Rakhmanov’s method as the main method of treatment and rehabilitation, which includes a set of psychophysical, psychophysiological, psychological and psychotherapeutic methods of influence. Acupuncture and hypnosis, patented inventions and other unique additions of Professor Rakhmanov are also actively used.
The essence of Professor Rakhmanov’s method of treatment and rehabilitation is to activate the hidden reserves of the patient’s body and restore general mental functions, the immune system, psycho-motor skills, attention, intelligibility, speech functions and speech development, revealing the capabilities of the auditory analyzer, improving hearing acuity, social adaptation and many other indicators.
The effectiveness of Professor Rakhmanov’s treatment and rehabilitation methods has been confirmed and recognized by leading international organizations and communities in the field of psychiatry and healthcare. From a practical point of view, the effectiveness of the methods is confirmed by a large number of patients who have received complete recovery, significant or key positive improvements (previously not seen) from such mental illnesses and syndromes as:
In most cases, all patients are treated without the use of medications.
Attention: drug therapy is used only as an exception.
The course of treatment and rehabilitation is determined individually for each patient.
One course of treatment lasts 20 days, with daily therapy sessions and classes.
The main method of treatment is Professor Rakhmanov’s own development and combines a set of methods under one name “Psychophysical and psychophysiological methods”.
The course of therapy consists of 4 stages.
After completing stage I (in subsequent stages), treatment becomes more complex and somewhat more complicated. At all subsequent stages, a dosed exclusion of sensory analyzers is carried out – the DDZA method is patented by Professor Rakhmanov.
At stage III, the necessary drug therapy is applied individually, as agreed and desired by patients and relatives.
At stage IV – dosed exclusion of both sensory analyzers, etc.
Stimulation of the dominant hemispheres of the brain and other therapeutic procedures are also carried out.
Art therapy (from the Greek word arte – valor, virtue).
This complex includes special psychological and psychotherapeutic methods that make it possible to influence a person’s moral (spiritual) life.
Art therapy allows you to overcome such qualities as shyness, indecision, fear, fear of strangers, and is carried out in two stages.
The first is the patients’ independent choice of topics and materials to implement the plan. If necessary, a psychologist or psychotherapist supports creative initiatives, and patients who have already been rehabilitated to one degree or another can also be brought in to help.
Second, patients are given the opportunity to independently make crafts, drawings, figures, etc. At the end of the lesson, the qualities that were activated during the creative process are discussed – psychological and motor activity, behavior and others.
It is carried out from the first days of contact between the patient and the doctor. In the process of rehabilitation measures, patients observe changes in their condition, which encourages them to look even better, eliminate their mental and physical deficiencies, etc. As positive changes accumulate, they can evaluate successes as a whole and see the dynamics of recovery.
Like other methods of harmonious influence, it allows you to activate the psychophysical capabilities of the patient’s body, improve his social adaptation, etc. As a rule, it is used in combination with other methods.
We are convinced from our medical practice that there are simply no stereotypical approaches in rehabilitation programs for such a complex category of patients as patients with disabilities. Moreover, such rehabilitation usually includes the patient’s relatives as their preferred habitat. In the course of creative work, we found the concept of an integrative approach for medical and psychosocial rehabilitation, where the best methods and means of psychotherapy, psychology and pedagogy are combined into one unit.
Patients with disabilities, for example, those with hearing impairments, are treated together with people who have normal hearing functions, but who have neurotic and somatoform disorders. After treatment, the patient requires constant communication with normally hearing people, that is, a more complete social macro- and microenvironment than before. A recovering person, one might say, spreads his wings, and therefore he needs not isolation, but space.
Our early studies revealed that after a child’s illness, 84% of mothers and 18% of fathers develop various emotional-affective, psychotic and non-psychotic disorders. If measures are not taken to eliminate them, then in the future there is a real possibility of a more severe nature of psychotic, psychosomatic diseases. These disorders also have a social significance, namely: in 5.2% of such families there is a breakdown of marriage, in 11.0% there is alcohol abuse, in 9.8% there is a refusal of a previously planned second child, etc.
Ignoring this type of disorder during the process of patient rehabilitation can negate the effectiveness of all other methods. To avoid this, we have developed a set of sociotherapeutic and psychotherapeutic rehabilitation measures aimed at simultaneously providing assistance to the parents themselves and other members of the patient’s family.
The goal of sociotherapeutic activities is to improve social relationships, awaken and strengthen interest in healthy work activities, and eliminate the inferiority complex. For this purpose, a set of psychotherapeutic measures is used in conjunction with therapeutic and pedagogical influence.
With this integrated approach, some treatment measures complement others. Our system provides the opportunity to communicate and meet in informal groups. For example, we hold traditional meetings between already treated and new patients. Teachers, leaders of work collectives, social workers are involved in such treatment and pedagogical activities, and relatives of patients and their loved ones are also active and direct participants.
Elements of sociotherapeutic measures are used in the rehabilitation process: from the first day of the patient’s arrival until the end of treatment. Much attention is paid to them at repeated stages. Another necessary condition: after discharge, we maintain contact with patients, coordinate (outside the walls of the medical institution) further psychotherapeutic activities, in which sociotherapy remains the main tool for influencing the patient.
Family consultation is one of the main stages of family psychotherapy, the purpose of which is to become familiar with family relationships, the problems of family members or a family member, and the relationship of the child’s illness with these problems. At the same time, situations and aspects of role relationships and interactions in the family are analyzed to search for elements of a therapeutic effect, in other words, a resource for further treatment and rehabilitation measures.
A school for parents is necessary for organizing treatment and rehabilitation activities for sick children, teaching elements of psychological assistance to parents in order to achieve the maximum positive result.
Autogenic training is one of the stages of recovering patients, incl.
family psychotherapy for parents. At the same time, they learn muscle relaxation training, self-hypnosis, self-education, autodactics and others.
The technique allows you to expand the treatment process from a medical springboard to a broader, social one, in order to integrate the patient into a full-fledged living space.
In this case, the following tasks are solved:
Assertive training is carried out at subsequent stages of autogenic training in order to develop self-confidence and confident behavior. At the same time, assertive training helps the patient in promoting and preventing his own fantasy and ideas of need, aspiration, feelings and emotions, interests in relation to himself and others.
Behavioral psychotherapy includes non-verbal and verbal-cognitive, motivational-affective, emotional-subjective, non-verbal-imitative manipulations, the purpose of which is to improve social adjustment and communication in the micro- and macroenvironment and has the following features:
Body-oriented psychotherapy in the child rehabilitation system is one of the methods of psychotherapy aimed at making a sick child aware of positive and “negative” bodily sensations that are created artificially by the medical staff themselves – a doctor, a rehabilitation specialist.
Body-oriented psychotherapy in combination with stimulation of cortical and subcortical speech areas, Wernicke’s sensitive primary speech area, Broca’s secondary motor area and auditory cortical areas. In the process of psychotherapeutic measures, stimulation of speech zones, Wernicke’s area and Broca’s area, and auditory cortical zones, the dominant hemisphere of the brain, is simultaneously carried out.
Body-oriented psychotherapy in combination with tactile therapy, in other words, stimulation of biologically active points or zones, is one of the ways to stimulate the communicative spheres in children.
For this purpose, artificial stimulation of biologically active points or zones of the child is carried out daily until positive emotions appear on the face.
Treatment in this case is aimed at relieving neurotic and somatoform disorders and improving social existence. For 2-3 months after treatment, patients remain under our active supervision. In particular, they are provided with such supportive psychological and psychotherapeutic measures as telephone conversations, correspondence and communication on the Internet. If necessary, the patient may be prescribed a short course of treatment in a hospital.
One course of medical and psychosocial rehabilitation consists of 3-4 stages. Starting from the first stage, patients adapt to the next stage of therapy.
Stage I is adaptation and elimination of neurotic and somatoform disorders and improvement of relationships in the micro- and macroenvironment. After which the patients are discharged under the supervision of specialists, followed by supportive therapy.
After adaptation to the achieved results, the second stage of therapy is carried out after 3-4 months. In this case, the main emphasis is on consolidating the results of stage I in the interval between stages I and II and connecting a more intense impact on sensory stimuli and speech centers in the left hemisphere (Brocca and Wernicke) by stimulating these centers again.
After a break of 3-4 months, the next third stage of therapy is carried out. At this stage, along with the usual therapy of stages I and II, individual, at the request and with the consent of the parents of children and adult patients, the use of the necessary drug therapy is included. After completion, with a break of 3-4 months, we proceed to the fourth stage of therapy, which consists of artificially dosing the intake of sensory stimuli, in particular visual and auditory.
After completing one course of therapy, these patients are under our supervision and
further rehabilitation measures are coordinated with the results of the first course of therapy, the desire and capabilities of the patient’s family members.
Children suffering from autism and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), mental retardation disorders (MDD, MRDD, CPRD), cerebral palsy (CP) and other severe mental illnesses, after treatment by Professor Rakhmanov, there is an improvement in cognitive processes and general mental development, psycho-speech development, psychomotor development and many other positive improvements and changes. During treatment, the parameters of social existence are normalized, the functioning of the endocrine and immune systems improves, as a result of which children get sick less.
Harmonization of mental life leads to the disappearance of discomfort in communicating with people and the external environment, and interest in life, creativity and art appears.
