Healing with EFT
So What is EFT?
EFT is based on this theory or Foundation statement. 'All negative emotions are caused by a disruption in the body's energy system.'
In addition to having a physical body, which is fuelled by food, we humans also run on this intricate energy system which is fuelled by electrical impulses, which run through the body and brain. This energy system holds the key to many of the disturbances we experience in our daily lives. When it is out of balance, our emotional life could be compared to a car that is in desperate need of a tune up.
This electromagnetic energy that flows through the body and regulates our health is only recently becoming recognized in the West, where modern medicine has concentrated on the physical and chemical nature of the body.
EFT could be described as psychological acupuncture, as it utilizes the same energy meridians used in traditional acupuncture to treat physical and emotional ailments, but without the invasiveness of needles.
Instead, simple tapping with the fingertips is used, to input kinetic energy onto specific meridians on the body, while tuned into a specific problem - whether it is a traumatic event, an addiction, pain or anxiety. The creative use of statements enables the person to tune into the issue and remain focused on the problem during the treatment. This is vital to the success of the therapy.
This combination of tapping the energy meridians and voicing of the statements works to clear the 'energy disruption' or 'emotional block' from your body's energy system, thus restoring your mind and body's balance, which is essential for optimal health and the healing of physical ailments.
Most energetic imbalances may be partially or completely relieved within a short time using this process. Others may be relieved through repetition of the process.
EFT is very versatile and has been used successfully by hundreds of therapists including myself, on thousands of clients, with successes on even the most difficult problems, by relieving imbalances in our clients' energy systems. Indeed, because of its very high rate of success, the use of EFT has spread rapidly. Now medical practitioners can now be found in every corner of the country and world. EFT also can be used to complement and enhance skills such as Hypnotherapy, Psychology, NLP and Life Coaching.

What EFT can be used for
These techniques have been used successfully with many thousands of people with a broad range of difficulties. Emotional healing with EFT is capable of dramatically relieving emotional disturbances along with many physical symptoms. These techniques are gentle, rapid and startlingly effective. New or old emotional upsets can often be released in minutes, the results are usually long lasting, and side effects are almost always positive.
Many case histories show large improvements or total healing from:
- Negative Emotions
- Food Cravings
- Reducing or Eliminating Pain
- Implementing Positive Goals
- Cigarette Addiction

This is just a partial list of the possibilities. Again, in the words of Gary Craig ' Try it on everything.' But he also suggests and is obviously a matter of common sense that 'You should not go where you are not qualified.' For example, in the case of serious psychological illness.
The use of this technique is relatively new and part of the beginning of a complete revolution in the way we deal with our emotions and health.

In many cases, difficulties that have persisted in spite of years of work using the methods of traditional psychology may be relieved in minutes. At most, relief is generally possible within days or weeks rather than years.
It is estimated that over 85% or more of emotional issues treated with these processes are eliminated quickly.
Which conditions can Reiki help?
REIKI
Reiki (pronounced Ray-key) is a Japanese word meaning Universal Life Energy, an energy which is all around us.
Natural Healing
Reiki is the name given to a system of natural healing which evolved in Japan from the experience and dedication of Dr Mikao Usui (d. 1926). Fired by a burning question, Dr Usui was inspired to develop this healing system from ancient teachings after many years of study, research and meditation. He spent the rest of his life practising and teaching Reiki. Today Reiki continues to be taught by Reiki Masters who have trained in the tradition passed down from Master to student.
There is no belief system attached to Reiki so anyone can receive or learn to give a Reiki treatment, the only prerequisite is the desire to be healed.
A Reiki Treatment
The method of receiving a Reiki treatment from a practitioner is a very simple process. The recipient simply lies on a couch and relaxes. If they are unable to lie down the treatment can be given in a sitting position, the main thing is for the recipient to be as comfortable as possible. There is no need to remove any clothing as Reiki will pass through anything, even plaster casts. The practitioner gently places their hands non-intrusively in a sequence of positions which cover the whole body. The whole person is treated rather than specific symptoms. A full treatment usually takes 1 to 1½ hours with each position held for several minutes.
It is possible to heal at any level of being: physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. Acute injuries can be helped to heal very quickly but more chronic illness takes longer. In some cases such as terminal illness, there is not enough time for the progress of the disease to be reversed. However, in such cases there is usually great benefit and enhancement of the quality of life giving a sense of peace and acceptance during the time remaining.
Reiki healing can be given anywhere at any time as no special equipment is needed. The practitioner is a channel which the energy is drawn through by the need or imbalance in the recipient. Neither person has to use any effort of will or concentration during this process.
As running water smoothes the jagged edges of a rock until it is small enough to roll away, Reiki flows to the areas of need, soothing pain and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself. Reiki restores balance in one's life.
Reiki supports all forms of treatment both orthodox and complementary.
