Understanding EFT

EFT is a form of accupressure. An essential part of EFT history is the extensive research put into the practice over the years. Let’s talk about where EFT started and the scientific basis for EFT tapping.

History and Evolution of EFT

EFT as we know it today emerged in the 1990s. However, the root of emotional freedom techniques and the science behind the practice of EFT tapping have been around for much longer. EFT tapping uses acupressure points based on the Chinese practice of acupuncture, which was first documented in 100 BC.

These include:

KC (karate chop)
EB (eyebrow)
SE (side of eye)
UE (under eye)
CP (chin)
CB (collarbone)
UA (underarm)
TH (top of head)

Now, over 100 research studies support the efficacy of EFT.

Scientific Basis and Research Supporting EFT

EFT research shows that emotional freedom techniques are effective for various situations and mental or physical health concerns. Research generally measures the efficacy of EFT based on things like a reduction in anxiety, depression, pain, or trauma symptoms.

The Process of EFT Tapping

EFT sessions will differ based on your tapping techniques, the issue you wish to address, and other factors. Even so, you can learn some basics of EFT methodology to get an initial grasp on EFT tapping and what to expect.

Our EFT Tapping therapist specialises in the following issues or conditions.

Detailed Step-by-Step Guide to EFT Tapping

Just like the issue you wish to address will vary, the specific acupressure points you tap and other details of a sequence can change. Here’s an example of a basic EFT session:

Step 1: Pinpoint the issue.

Step 2: Rate the severity of the issue (e.g., anxiety) on a scale of 1-10.

Step 3: Create your setup statement, which will consist of acknowledgment of the issue (e.g., “Even though I feel anxious…”) followed by a positive affirmation (e.g., “I am capable and worthy.”) Alternatively, you can use a mantra, such as “Nothing bad will happen to me on the plane” (for phobias, etc.).

Step 4: Repeat the setup statement or mantra as you complete your tapping sequence.

Step 5: Rate the severity of the issue once your tapping sequence is finished, and repeat step 4 as needed until you are satisfied with your rating.

EFT for Diverse Needs

EFT can address a diverse set of needs. Everyone who uses EFT tapping has different goals. You can use EFT for anxiety, stress relief, anger, trauma, to improve interpersonal relationships, your social life, functioning at work or school, physical health problems, and so much more.

Case Studies: EFT for Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma.

A case study is a type of research study that focuses on the unique case of one individual.

A 2022 case study determined that those who practice EFT regularly can better understand and navigate disturbing emotions. The author noted that EFT is cost-effective, simple, and easy to learn for “all emotions and body pains.” This specific study focused on fear, anxiety, and trauma healing with EFT.

Studies have found that ten sessions of EFT for PTSD or trauma can lead to better symptom management. Similarly, as few as three sessions can help relieve anxiety and depression.

EFTs Role in Managing Chronic Pain and Other Conditions

A study on six weeks of EFT for chronic pain discovered that after six weeks, participants showed a reduction in pain severity, pain interference, somatic symptoms, depression, and anxiety, alongside higher scores of happiness, life satisfaction, and quality of life.

EFT can also play a role in managing other conditions. For example, research has looked at EFT for fibromyalgia, tension headaches, psoriasis, frozen shoulder, chemotherapy side effects, traumatic brain injury, insomnia, pulmonary injuries, and seizure disorders.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Does EFT tapping really work?

Yes. Research has shown that EFT tapping is effective in helping people cope with or reduce scores of depression, insomnia, anxiety (including specific phobias), chronic pain, other physical health problems, stress, and a wide range of other concerns. EFT research also supports the use of EFT for self-confidence, public speaking, managing your reactions to situations, creating a more positive inner voice, challenging negative thoughts, and other benefits.

What are the 5 steps to tapping?

The five steps to tapping include identifying the concern or thought you want to work on, rating the severity of the issue, creating your set-up statement, repeating the statement as you complete your tapping sequence, and rating the severity issue again once your tapping sequence is complete to gauge progress. After that, you can repeat step four (repeating the statement as you complete your tapping sequence) until the severity level lowers, and you’re happy with the results.

Would an in-person EFT session be more beneficial, or does an online session via Zoom offer similar benefits?

Zoom EFT sessions are just as effective as in-person instruction. Extensive research on online therapy shows that the efficacy is equal to that of in-person therapy. In fact, very few therapies can’t be conducted online. Online EFT sessions are convenient and allow you to master EFT from anywhere.

How often and how long should one tap with EFT for optimal results?

To let your body process and release fully and properly, it is ideal for most people to engage in about three rounds of EFT tapping at a time, checking the intensity twice weekly. The time required for each round will depend on the specific sequence or sequences used.

How long does it usually take for EFT tapping to show results?

Often, individuals start to see positive results from EFT tapping within a few tapping sessions or rounds. If you use EFT tapping regularly, the positive effects will continue to increase.

Is there scientific evidence supporting the efficacy of tapping?

There is extensive scientific evidence to support the efficacy of EFT tapping. In 2019, there were already over 100 studies that demonstrated the use of emotional freedom techniques for various physical health problems, mental health concerns, and other personal obstacles or challenges. Since then, we have seen an increase in EFT research and the scientific evidence behind the practice.
