It may sound a bit kinky but everything from depression to alcoholism can be cured with a beating on the bare bottom, scientists claim.
Spanking is more effective than exercise at keeping the blues at bay, say Russian researchers who carried out tests on caning.
They recommend that people receive 30 weekly sessions of 60 of the best. High levels of pain make the body produce endorphins or 'happy chemicals' and this leads to feelings of euphoria.
Endorphins also boost the immune system, release sex hormones and reduce appetite.
Dr Sergei Speransky, who now charges patients £57 for treatment at Novosibirsk Institute of Medicine, said: 'The treatment works. I'm not sadistic, at least not in the classical sense, but I do advocate caning.'

I don't remember ever gushing with happiness when my old man whacked me, and I'd be a damn sight less happy if anyone tried it today.
My vote - based on my admittedly anecdotal experience - is to let whoever came up with this idea go back to the drawing board.

Just dang, many years ago I was working in a drug rehab center. I was working midnights and I get a phone call from a possible patient. He wanted to know if we gave spankings as part of treatment. I told him ''no''. He continued to state he really needed to be spanked. I told him ''not by me you're not.''
I thought he was just a perv, now I know he was just ahead of his times.

"Note how one article has him as a sadist and the other has him as a masochist."
A masochist would be on the receiving end of the good doctor's treatments. Since he is not, he is definitely a sadist, not a masochist.

"Whip me! Spank me!" says the masochist.
"No" says the sadist.

As I said the other day...He's not a "classic" masochist, he's a "New Age" masochist. Note how one article has him as a sadist and the other has him as a masochist.
Clearly a "switch" hitter ... literally

Articles like this are simply way, way beyond my meager imagination. My quite modest experience with spanking (my parents threatened far more than they had to carry it out, and I've found that works for my daughter, too) suggests that there is no way spanking produces happiness. It does enhance respect for parents, though, properly applied.
Of course, other such nutty concepts as licking a toad to get high, and general craziness of that order to secure happiness have escaped me, too.
