"Under chronic stress, your body is more apt to enter a state of dis-ease. Unable to acheive its natutral balance, it can't function the way it should. The ripple effects can be proufound. And yet Western medicine has trained us to focus on symptoms rather than root causes like stress." 

Nick Ortner (The Tapping Solution) 

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is an Eastern alternative treatment for pain and emotional distress. It is also referred to as "tapping." EFT involves tapping certain Meridian points on the body, which can create a balance in your energy system and treat pain. EFT can be used with a therapist for processing emotional wounds and can be taught to clients to use as a home remedy for regulating and calming the nervous system.
