Medical experts agree that no one knows what causes rheumatoid
arthritis, other autoimmune disorders, or chronic pain. They say there
is no known cure or way to prevent Parkinson’s disease, ulcerative
colitis, multiple sclerosis, osteoarthritis, or dozens of other
illnesses. Modern medicine doesn’t attempt to cure these conditions.
Instead, it manages them for as long as possible with
symptom-suppressing procedures and drugs.
But a growing number
of physicians, medical experts, and health care practitioners believe
they know how these illnesses begin and progress. It’s not all in your
head, they say – but it is in the muscles and organs that store past
traumas. Releasing stored traumas releases the illness’s underlying
cause and helps the body heal from the inside out. The method they use
is EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), a do-it-yourself acupressure
technique described in a free manual from the official EFT website.

“At least 85 percent of medical
problems are physical manifestations of how stress, anxiety, or past
traumas are held in and processed by the body,” says Los Angeles
physician Eric Robins, MD. “EFT is the best technique for addressing
these issues and clearing them out of the body.”
The speed and
effectiveness of EFT is the result of treating the problem at its
source, the imbalances in the body's energy system. Stressful and
traumatic experiences, that are not resolved, leave the body’s energy
system in a state of imbalance, and we experience strong negative
emotions that are difficult to let go of as a result. Once these
imbalances are corrected, the negative emotion quickly shifts into a
positive emotion. EFT does this by having the recipient "tune into" the
negative emotion, tap a set of acupressure treatment points and perform
other energy balancing exercises to help the mind/body heal itself.
This process can take from five minutes to an hour depending on the
number of aspects (separate emotional parts of a feeling or a memory)
which need to be treated.
Gary Craig, the Stanford-trained
engineer who developed EFT, worked with Vietnam War Veterans to help
them resolve some of their traumatic memories. Says Craig, “in the
course of applying EFT, the Veterans experienced profound emotional
peace for the first time in 20 years. A side-benefit was that many of
the men reported that their chronic physical pain diminished or
disappeared along with their emotional pain. Soon we were successfully
applying EFT with people who were suffering chronic pain from
arthritis, back injury and even fibromyalgia. Emotional and physical
relief tend to go hand-in-hand when doing EFT.”
EFT is a form of
psychological acupressure that used light tapping instead of needles to
stimulate traditional Chinese acupuncture points. The tapping on the
designated points on the face and body is combined with verbalizing the
identified problem followed by a general affirmation phase. Combining
these ingredients of the EFT technique balances the energy system and
appears to relieve psychological stress and physiological pain.
Restoring the balance of the energy system allows the body and mind to
resume their natural healing abilities. EFT is safe, easy to apply, and
is non-invasive.
Many people here in our area have begun using
EFT to resolve all types of issues, from stress relief to weight loss.
The success rate is very high and the technique is very easy. It seems
to be most effective when learned from an experienced practitioner who
can offer suggestions and guidance, however, once the technique has
been learned the individual is encouraged to continue using the
technique on your own for other issues that may arise.
