One such CAM modality is massage therapy. This article examines the evidence for the value of applications of massage therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), trauma, and related conditions, including anxiety.

В последние годы психологи, а также специалисты в области психического здоровья и смежных медицинских профессий вновь обращают внимание на потенциал нетрадиционной и альтернативной медицины для поддержания здоровья и благополучия. Одним из видов такой медицины является массажная терапия. В данной статье рассматривается целесообразность применения массажа для терапии посттравматического стрессового расстройства (ПТСР), травмы и сопутствующих состояний, включая тревогу.
