Abstract

Treating symptoms without knowing the real cause is not recommended in medical practice. We present this case to highlight this important aspect of medical practice and to show the effectiveness of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a newly introduced non-pharmacological therapeutic intervention for Psycho trauma and other psychiatric disorders in Pakistan.
