Trichotillomania is a pulse control or brain disease similar to OCD or addiction when a person pulls out his own hair. Hair can be located anywhere. Trichotillamania can be caused by trauma, rape, physical abuse, torture, child abuse and violent emotional abuse. It may be minor and easily manageable or serious. This disease can overwhelm a person. For a person with this disease, it is very important to eliminate or minimize the impact of any severely negative people in their lives who are offensive or exploitative. This is an emotional disorder that usually requires several treatments for successful management. There are many alternative treatments that have not been studied for this disease, but they can be successful due to the large emotional component of the disease. Trichotillomania is similar to addiction, OCD and bad habit. Silence of the mind should be one of the goals of any therapy. Alternative treatments that soothe the mind include yoga, scalp acupuncture, acupuncture acupuncture, emotional freedom (EFT), botanical extracts, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and orthomolecular medicine.
This person must be assessed by a medical professional. Full physical and diagnostic testing of hormones and neurotransmitters should occur. This patient should be evaluated for the presence of AIDS and a brain tumor. There are several diseases that are serious enough to lead to very irregular symptoms. It is extremely important to be very aggressive in treating this disease. Amino acid therapy may be useful for this and may include 5-HTP, theanine, GABA and phenylalanine. Chinese medicinal herb recipes can be considered along with Chinese extracts of liquid herbs. Scalp acupuncture can be very successful in treating this type of disease. This should be done with large needles for this type of disease. Scalp acupuncture treatment lasts from 30 minutes to one hour. You may need nine treatments to see results. Laser therapy using a cold medical laser can work well on this patient. You may need several sessions of a cold medical grade laser therapy before you see a significant change.
It is important for this person to sleep well and eat a well-balanced diet without nitrates, amines and food dyes. This person should avoid genetically modified foods, food additives, MSG, tumors, and drink plenty of pure water in order to remain fully hydrated. The diet should allow decaf Swiss coffee or organic coffee and tea. This person should think about trying a spin diet where each food can be eaten once for four days. It is also good to identify and reduce the effects of all allergens. You may consider some form of allergy treatment. Allergy to treatment with shots is one of the alternatives. NAET is not a painful alternative that includes chiropractic and acupuncture with a special diet for the treatment of allergens. This person needs a form of regular exercise, such as walking, gym, biking, Bikram yoga, hiking and dancing.
