简要总结
The primary purpose of this study is to use an unblinded, uncontrolled, 1-month interventional single group pilot study, to assess the possibility of Orgasmic Meditation practice being used as a possible intervention for PTSD. The secondary purpose of this study is to examine if OM is associated with a decrease in the symptoms and self-assessed experiences associated with trauma.
The OM Trauma Protocol (OMTP) is designed to systematize the application of Orgasmic Meditation (OM) for individuals seeking relief from a wide variety of problems and/or help them in their pursuit of eudaimonia. The study protocol will evaluate whether OMing (the act of practicing OM) shows potential for being an effective intervention for people suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
