289: How to Deal with OCD Without Medication: The Science of Nervous System Regulation

17 min • 26 mars 2025

Managing obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) without medication is both possible and effective when approached through nervous system regulation. More often than not, medication does not address the root cause of OCD but instead focuses on symptom management. While it may provide temporary relief, it does not teach the brain how to regulate itself or break free from compulsive patterns. This is why there's a great need to have a holistic approach that targets brain function, behavioral reinforcement, and overall nervous system health can lead to lasting improvements.

In this episode, we'll discuss how to deal with OCD without medication by focusing on nervous system regulation and natural strategies that support long-term healing. These evidence-based strategies work with the brain’s natural ability to heal and adapt, providing a sustainable path to overcoming OCD. Whether you're a parent seeking guidance for your child or someone navigating OCD yourself, this episode will provide valuable insights and actionable steps to create lasting change.
