EFT Acupressure Therapy

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a healing therapy based on the premise that our emotions and physical symptoms are linked to the underlying energy system of the body. That energy system is the acupuncture meridian system known to the Chinese for over five thousand years.

The underpinning concept of EFT is simple, yet sheds a whole new light on our emotional experiences and how we perceive the emotions. EFT was developed by Stanford Engineer Gary Craig, who discovered the basic theory in 1991 and continues to this day to develop and improve on EFT applications.

Gary Craig’s EFT discovery statement asserts that: “The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system.” He believes that “our unresolved negative emotions are major contributors to most physical pains and diseases.”

How Does EFT Work?

Chinese Medicine and the ancient Indian Science of Ayurveda both support the concept that our emotional experiences, in particular resentments, hurts and anger, contribute significantly to the development of disease in the human body.

While EFT assertion that all negative emotions are caused by a disruption in the energy system of the body may sound odd at first, the idea is far from new. In fact, it’s 5,000 years old and was more recently enforced by Albert Einstein who taught that everything is made of energy.

The reason EFT works so well is purely because it embraces the secrets of Eastern healing traditions that have been overlooked by the West.

Acupuncture therapy is finally attracting interest, and research has been conducted to try and figure out how and why it works. Yet that research will always seek to put acupuncture in a box that makes sense to what conforms in the West. The impressive results of acupuncture have been called a placebo effect, when, in truth, they are due to an ancient understanding of meridian energy circuitry which runs throughout all living creatures.

EFT & Acupuncture

In acupuncture therapy, points are carefully selected by practitioners trained to read the maps of the meridian system. EFT is based on a select few of these potent points known to excel in giving emotional and physical relief to anyone who simply learns where they are and how to use them. EFT does not require expert knowledge, or the use of needles, the points are simply stimulated by tapping on them with the fingertips.

We need only look to the fact that in China hundreds of people every day undergo heart surgery using nothing but acupuncture for anesthesia, to realize that anything based on the solid healing foundation that acupuncture has to offer is worth exploring further.

Gary Craig developed EFT as an incredibly user friendly access point to the benefits of acupuncture and the healing potential latent within us all to deal with our physical and emotional pain. EFT’s track record for relieving negative emotions, anxiety and trauma has earned it the descriptive title of “acupuncture for the emotions, but without the needles.”

There’s an old saying that we should judge a tree by it’s fruits. The fruits of EFT can be quickly and easily tasted by learning the basics and setting EFT to work on dissolving any negative emotion. EFT takes just 5 minutes to learn, and then you can put it to the test of your own direct experience. To achieve maximum results it is recommended that you work with a qualified EFT practitioner.

Treat Emotional Disturbance Easily with EFT

Nearly everyone has some sort of trauma related issue or phobia that could do with being dealt with. Whether it is something that happened in youth or as an adult causing  emotional disturbance, or phobias such as a fear of flying or maybe of public speaking, then a reasonably new simple procedure called Emotional Freedom Technique could be for you!

Emotional Freedom Technique or EFT is a therapy that is rapidly gaining favor among many people from many walks of life – including Hollywood superstars. Many therapists such as Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapists, Counselors and even medical staff are learning the benefits for their clients.

While EFT looks like quite a strange technique at first and seems not too dissimilar to the realms of tree hugging and other new age techniques it seems to work and for most people that’s all that counts. I use EFT therapy with my clients and have achieved some amazing results, where nothing else has worked for them before.

So what is EFT and what will it do for you?

Well… this is a massive question; however I will have a go at giving you the best answer that I can.

EFT is a process of tapping on certain parts of your body while focusing on the issue that is causing you emotional distress.

There… I did say it would seem a bit strange; however don’t let this put you off. The creators of EFT say that it works by clearing emotional blockages in our meridian energy system. Eastern cultures have been using this healing concept in the form of acupuncture for over 5000 years.

We need only look to the fact that in China hundreds of people every day undergo heart surgery using nothing but acupuncture for anesthesia, to realize that anything based on the solid healing foundation that acupuncture has to offer is worth exploring further.

It desensitizes and alters the image that you run through your mind when you think about your phobia or an issue that is upsetting you.

You see, each time we experience something like a phobia we run a picture through our minds of what ‘might happen’. It is this that makes us feel bad and not actually being in the situation as this is just a trigger for the phobic response.

By running through this picture in your head, in conjunction with applying the acupressure tapping techniques, allows your mind to experience the image differently. It allows the image to morph, thus allowing you to feel differently about it.

So there you have it… Emotional Freedom Techniques may seem a bit quirky, but it might just be the thing for you!
