EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)

Emotional Freedom Techniques also called EFT is a relatively new discovery but is fast evolving as an effective treatment used by healers, spiritualists, counsellors and lay people.

It is often referred to ‘Psychological Acupressure’ because it works on the same technique of releasing blocked energies within our system that cause discomfort. The resulting conditions of such blockages could be emotional, including lack of confidence, depression, and phobias or behavioural like overeating or sleep disorder. Emotional blockages can even manifest into physical symptoms including chronic illnesses.

About 5,000 years ago, the Chinese discovered a complex system of energy circuits called meridians that run throughout the body. Meridians form the basis for modern day acupuncture and uses needles to release trapped pressure from these energy points.

An EFT treatment focuses on the specific problem whilst tapping with fingers on the end points of the same energy meridians. Combining the kinetic energy which is sent to our energy system, whilst focussing on the emotional root causes, facilitates a clearing of the energy system. This eliminates the blockages that were created by the negative emotions.

 EFT works on the principle that “Our negative emotions are caused by a disruption in the body’s energy system”. In a short time since its inception in 1990’s by Gary Craig, EFT has provided relief to thousands of people from all kinds of problems and conditions- trauma, abuse, behavioural disorders, to deep set emotional conditions of anxiety and depression, addictions, physical illness and others.

The treatment of EFT is non-invasive and is highly effective which is why it is increasingly being used around the world as an alternative treatment to cure diseases and conditions.
