Treating Multiple Chemical Sensitivity
This video is intended for therapists.
EMDR is a great tool for working with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, the syndrome in which people have big reactions to odors, chemicals, certain kinds of lights, and some foods. These sensitivities are often a response to one or more truly allergic reactions, then become a nervous system reaction triggered by an increasing number of things. Some people with MCS have to stay home, avoiding many activities and locations that trigger them. Some people develop phobias and panic, after many horrible reactions. I’ve used EMDR, a simple visualization, and polyvagal calming techniques to help about 35 people to completely shed their reactions and get back to normal life. I’ve also used it one time to work with Graft vs. Host Disease. Here’s a 35-minute video on how to do the protocol.
If you use this protocol, could you let me know how it worked for your client? I’m collecting data about this for a journal article.
And someone successfully used this in September, 2021 with the Covid-19 symptom of loss of smell and loss of taste and reported that their client got both back in one session. Aside from EMDR with the illness, she imagined “turning the taste machine back on.” Please let me know if you’ve used the protocol with this symptom.
