Psychotherapy and Psychotherapist
  • Psychotherapy is the treatment method that is
    usually used to regain mental health and perform
    well in the society.
  • Psychotherapists are called just therapists.
    There is a wide majority of aspects that
    psychotherapist cover in addressing mental
    issues. Moreover, psychotherapists are often
    confused with psychologists and psychiatrists. So
    it important for you to understand the difference
    and decide what one should be looking at in
    critical situations. Psychiatrists are medical
    doctors having a degree in medicine and a
    specialization in mental health. They usually
    suggest medication but can also supervise talking
    therapies. Psychologists are doctors of
    psychology and they mainly focus on roots of
    certain actions and feelings. But they are not
    authorized to prescribe medications alone but can
    work in a team with medical doctors. Whereas,
    psychotherapy is usually what people look for in
    most of the mental issues. Psychotherapists are
    usually known to carry out talking therapy but
    they also specialize in cognitive behavioural
    therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, and other
    interpersonal therapies. Because not all patients
    (such as children and reluctant adults) and
    mental issues can depend on just communication,
    psychotherapists design other therapies to
    addresses such patients. In psychotherapy,
    psychotherapists use evidence-based treatments to
    help people regain mental health and overcome
    their problems that usually create hurdles in
    their routine life.

Benefits of Seeking Help from a Psychotherapist
  • According to various studies, psychotherapy has
    helped many of the individuals to move back to
    their normal life again. Psychotherapists
    practice evidence-based treatments according to
    the patients issue. Moreover, they take care of
    your cultural, your preferences and your values.
    On average, people who have been reported to be
    engaged in psychotherapeutic treatments recovered
    faster with a lesser rate of relapse in
    comparison to people who didnt opt for the
    therapeutic treatment. Though in early sessions
    therapeutic treatment seems tiring and useless to
    some, it assures long-lasting results on the
    persons mental health and social activities such
    relationships with friends, family and
    colleagues, improved work quality and more
    control over emotions. Psychotherapist makes you
    see the positive side of you and life as well as
    people you interact with. Moreover,
    psychotherapists increase your willpower and your
    decision-making capabilities. They identify the
    problem and make you understand what is holding
    you back from the positive side of you.
    Psychotherapists can help overcome addiction
    disorders and post-traumatic stress disorders.
    They have also helped children and adults
    overcoming the effects of bullying.
  • Hence, psychotherapy has made a positive change
    in lives of hundreds of people, sending back
    better individuals to the society.

Holistic Doctors and Holistic Treatments
  • Holistic doctors focus on the root cause of the
    diseases regardless of what the disease is. So,
    they introduce treatments to their patients that
    work on to reduce the very cause of the disease
    rather than the damages the disease has made.
    Hence, they focus the whole body of the person
    along with their lifestyle and food choices. Such
    doctors carry out they treatment holistically and
    strive to stable all the body functions and not
    just try to disappear the disease.
  • How Holistic Doctors Work?
  • Holistic doctors use both conventional
    medications and also incorporate other treatment
    methods. Whether it is depression, addiction,
    stress, physical pain or lack of sleep, holistic
    doctors approach all by detecting the origin of
    the disorder. Holistic doctors motivate their
    patients to adopt a healthy lifestyle. While on
    the other hand, they also treat their patients
    with pharmaceutical medicines. Moreover, they
    consider a person, not just a functioning being
    just like animals but they regard a person as a
    combination of body, mind, and spirit. For that
    reason, they address mental, emotional and
    spiritual health and not just physical health.
    They may also advise nutrients, vitamins, diet
    plan, exercise routine and also herbal medicine.
    In severe cases, they may also advise a person
    for surgery or operation.

Digestive Disorder
  • Causes of Digestive Disorders

    disorders is the poor and unhealthy diet. Lack of
    fibre-containing foods and water along with
    excess of junk, fatty, sugary and oily foods make
    the metabolic process slow. This gives birth to
    various digestive diseases.
  • Unhealthy Lifestyle
  • Lifestyle does not only influence your physical
    appearance but it plays an important role in the
    diseases you are facing. Smoking, alcohol, lack
    of sleep, extra work, taking a lot of stress and
    no exercise routine all these factors contribute
    to digestive disorders.
  • Allergies and Intolerance to Food
  • Some people are allergic to certain foods and
    therefore show some prominent reactions
    immediately after taking them. Some common
    symptoms that show allergies are a throat
    infection, swelled lips and nausea. While in some
    severe it also becomes the cause of digestive
    disorders.
  • Genetic Causes
  • In some cases of pancreatic cancer, Crohns
    disease, hypothyroidism, diabetes type 1, cystic
    fibrosis, liver diseases and coeliac disease the
    cause are considered genetic and passed on
    through a persons mother or father.

Digestive Disorder
  • Structural causes
  • Sometimes in people facing diverticulosis,
    pouches are formed in the intestine such
    abnormality in gastrointestinal system can be a
    hinder to the normal working of the digestive
    system. Such as ulcer and cancerous tumor also
    become a hurdle for the functioning of digestive
    system.
  • Side Effects of Medication
  • There are many medicines that can cause the side
    effects in the form of digestive disorder mostly
    due to their long-term use. For example,
    non-steroidal anti-inflammatories and some
    antibiotics affect the digestive system and cause
    ulceration, constipation, nausea and many other
    effects.
  • After Effects of the Surgery
  • Some of the digestive diseases are caused by the
    post-surgical side effects as a result of the
    surgeries that influence the gastrointestinal
    tract anatomy.
  • Getting Old
  • Getting old is a natural process and as the other
    parts of the body ages the digestive tract also.
    Everything that is linked to the digestive system
    that is our saliva, taste senses and reflux are
    affected and therefore develops various diseases.
  • Disorders due to Viral or Bacterial Diseases
  • Certain bacteria, parasites, and viruses affect
    the digestive system. Hence, they affect the
    metabolic process of the digestive system.

Digestive Disorder
  • Treatments of Digestive Disorder
  • Though many are many professionals in the medical
    science field but gastroenterologist are
    specialist in diagnosing and treating digestive
    disorders. Other than that many dietitians and
    nutritionists may help in this regard due to the
    fact that most digestive disorders are due to
    unhealthy eating and lifestyle. Moreover,
    surgeons, nurse practitioners (NP), primary care
    doctors, radiologists and holistic doctors can
    also provide the treatment for various digestive
    disorders. The treatment of digestive diseases
    involves the liver and digestive tract, which
    usually include the stomach, biliary tract
    duodenum, gallbladder, pancreas, small intestine
    and colon.
  • While there are systematic procedures and
    treatments for the digestive diseases there are
    always choices that one can make in lifestyle and
    diet to cure the disease before it reaches the
    final stage. While severe digestive disorders
    need help from the gastroenterologists. Some of
    the treatment options are discussed below
  • Changing Lifestyle
  • As already discussed many of the digestives
    disorders are the consequence of unhealthy
    lifestyle. That is why implementing good habits
    like exercise, yoga and meditation can improve
    the overall health and digestive system function.
    It can increase the metabolism rate and as well
    as oxygen in the blood.

  • Changing Eating Habits
  • The food one eats directly affects the digestive
    system. Quitting spicy, junk, alcohol, soda, cold
    drink extra oil and low fiber foods can help
    overcome the mild form of the disease. Seeking
    help from a dietician or nutritionist can relieve
    you from the symptoms faster as tell caninform
    you better on healthy eating. Switching to foods
    with high fiber, drinking appropriate amount of
    water and eating less sugary foods can certainly
    maintain the balance of the body. In certain
    cases, there is life time restraint such as in
    Coeliac Disease gluten has to avoided.
  • Medications
  • In cases, digestive diseases need medications.
    Such as antibiotics areprescribed in bacterial
    andparasitic infections. The length of the course
    demands on the disease plus various other factors
    like age and level of disease. While antacids and
    pain medications are prescribed for heartburn and
    abdominal pain respectively. But even certain
    medications require food control and avoidance.
