Description


When it comes to study on women recovering from sexual abuse,

there is a noticeable lack of research on body treatment. This study

looks at the practise of body-oriented therapy to try to Ill this important

gap. This type of treatment puts a lot of focus on being aware of

your body. Pt is a delicate mix of bodywork and the mental processing

that is a part of psychotherapy.Pn the history of academic research,

there have been a lot of studies on sexual abuse healing. Bost of these

studies focused on standard talk therapy. Aven though these traditional

forms of therapy have their uses, until now, the importance of

treating the deep connections between the body and mind has been

largely ignored. This study tries to Ill this gap and promote the study

of body-oriented treatment as a powerful alternative or complementary

way to help women who have been sexually abused heal from

the trauma.'ody-oriented therapy is based on the idea that physical

feelings and mental experiences are linked in a way that canGt be separated.

Lractitioners of this type of therapy try to help their clients heal

by making them more aware of their bodies. They do this by having

a deep knowledge of how everything is linked. This process often

includes a wide range of bodywork methods, from somatic experiencing

to gentle touch therapies, all of which are carefully designed

to help people reconnect with their bodies and, by extension, their

mental environments.2ne of the most important parts of body-oriented

treatment is going back and looking at old traumas and feelings

that were pushed down.
