ChessMaine: Managing Panic Disorder Through Chess Therapy

01.29.19 A paper was published in Volume 30 of the Asian Journal of Psychiatry that studied the effect of playing chess on treating a panic attack. Although this research is still in its infancy, the conclusion of this particular study was that chess therapy with the right level of difficulty can be recommended as a very effective non-pharmaceutical method for the successful treatment of panic attacks.

This was a great event. It was well organized. The venue was comfortable and sets were provided. As a participant, I appreciated the timely processing of the ratings when the tournament was over. I look forward to supporting future events.
