Thought Field Therapy - Part 2 - Health Plus Digest

Thought Field Therapy practitioners believe that it is not the traumatic event, nor the person’s thoughts that are the fundamental cause of the negative emotions. Instead, disturbances that contain the active information will trigger a response in the human body along neurological, chemical, hormonal and cognitive pathways. All of these things result in negative emotions which the individual feels when they relate to a specific dramatic event. These disturbances are called perturbations.

Practitioners who are trained in Thought Field Therapy are able to diagnosis the energy meridians which are causing the imbalances in the body, the same system that is used in acupuncture. Thought Field Therapy also utilizes tapping over acupressure or acupuncture points. This provides the additional energy the body requires to promote a healthy flow of electromagnetic energy throughout the body system.

The process is usually painless, quick and long-lasting. Practitioners have developed several different algorithms that worked well in approximately 80% of the cases as determined by case study in reports of practitioners. The remaining 20% usually require individual diagnosis and treatment protocols.

Thought Field Therapists do not claim that this technique works for every problem in every person. Several recent studies performed by proponents of the technique found that the treatments success rates were close to 90% or greater for a variety of psychological problems such as anxiety, fear, traumas, painful memories and depression.
