What exactly is EFT?
- EFT is a ground breaking technique combining psychotherapy and acupressure, bringing together elements of exposure therapy, cognitive therapy and somatic stimulation.
- EFT unites cutting edge neuroscience with age old chinese medicine to offer you an unbelievably effective tool for healing both mind and body.
- EFT is a self-applied technique which calms the brain and reduces stress in the body by lowering cortisol.
- In EFT we tap (somatic stimulation) on predetermined acupuncture points on the head and trunk while focusing our words on specific aspects of problems (exposure and/or cognitive therapy). The tapping allows us to let go of strong emotions associated with specific thoughts and memories.
- EFT is safe to use and easy to learn – though it does seem a bit weird to first time users.
- While EFT is a deceptively simple tool to learn, its true strength depends on the skill of the user.
