Individuals in recovery from substance use disorders often experience Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) during the 18-24 months post-abstinence. The greatest risk PAWS presents is the potential for relapse due to the detrimental effects on an individual's physical, emotional, spiritual and mental wellbeing. While much research has been done on the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) practices for substance use disorders and other co-occurring disorders, there is little information on the use of these practices for PAWS. Furthermore, in general, there is very little information on the use of the BioSound Therapy System (BTS), a mind, body, and spirit approach that integrates biofeedback, music therapy, meditation, and guided imagery into one cohesive unit. In light of this gap in research literature, the primary research question of this study was: What is the impact of the BioSound Therapy System on Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome? A total of 4 women in an outpatient substance use disorder treatment setting responded to this study. Over the course of a 4 week period, these women participated in 2 weekly sessions (8 total sessions) of the BTS. This mixed-methods, multi-case study examined what the impact of the BTS was on positive/negative affect, perceived stress, and overall wellbeing was for these participants. These 4 adult women completed pre- and post-test questionnaires after each session as well as a semi-structured interview upon completion of all 8 sessions. The quantitative results were graphed and analyzed, the interviews were transcribed, and thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Common themes that emerged from the interviews included (a) increased ability to think clearly and focus (b) increased ability to handle physical symptoms (c) increased relaxation (d) increased positive emotions (e) increased ability to handle stress (f) decreased negative emotions and (g) decreased anxiety. The study participants suggest that there was a positive impact on PAWS while using the BTS. This was evident in 4 of the 6 PAWS symptom clusters including: difficulty thinking clearly, difficulty remembering things, difficulty managing feelings, and stress sensitivity. There was little evidence that the BTS was effective in improving sleep quality or physical coordination. This is the first study to look at the impact of the BTS on PAWS. Based on the results of this study, further research is needed regarding the use of the BTS for PAWS in substance use disorder treatment settings.
