OCD Is Treatable as Abhasa Combines Traditional Therapy with Holistic Practices for Comprehensive Recovery

“OCD is more than just a collection of habits or occasional thoughts. There is no good or bad. It is all about deep and distressing thoughts that can take over a person's mind, paired with compulsive behaviours that feel almost impossible to resist. These behaviours, rather than providing relief, often reinforce the cycle of obsession and compulsion, consuming time and disrupting normal activities,” said Ms Gayathri Arvind, Founder & Managing Director, Abhasa.

“One question that often arises is whether OCD is genetic or hereditary. Research has shown individuals whose parents or siblings have OCD are at a higher risk of developing the disorder themselves. Also, environmental factors, such as significant stress or trauma, also play a critical role in the onset of the disorder,” she pointed out.

“Not many are aware, but OCD is a treatable condition. Many people with OCD can effectively manage their symptoms with the appropriate treatment. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective treatments. At Abhasa, in both our centres, we offer a comprehensive and compassionate approach to OCD treatment. Our rehabilitation centre combines traditional therapies with holistic practices to address both the symptoms and underlying causes of OCD,” Ms Gayathri added.

It is not only Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, including ERP, that is offered as a part of the treatment plans but, relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, and art therapy, are also included to help manage and reduce OCD symptoms.

At Abhasa, we believe that a healthy mind starts with a healthy body, so we provide our clients with fresh, organic meals that support their overall mental and physical well-being. Our team of highly trained professionals provides the best possible care, ensuring that each client receives personalized attention and support throughout their recovery journey.
