EFT/TFT Energy Tapping for FIbromyalgia Research
A huge number of therapists use energy tapping techniques, such as EFT or TFT, to help their clients.
However, their is surprisingly little research available on the subject.
EFT For Fibromyalgia – Brattburg August 2008
Gunilla Bratburg conducted research into the use of EFT energy tapping on a group of 86 women, who had been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and who had been on sick leave for at least 3 months as a result of the condition.
The volunteers were divided into a “therapy” group and “control” group.
EFT energy tapping was given to the therapy group, via the internet, for 8 weeks.
The study concluded that statistically significant improvements were observed for pain, anxiety, depression, performance and stress . Issues associated with the pain, such as rumination, magnification, and helplessness, were also significantly reduced
What is Fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia is a medical label for a long term condition that causes widespread pain and tiredness.
It is often preceded by an emotionally traumatic event, such as an injury, illness or death of a loved one.
The symptoms of fibromyalgia vary from person to person, and the medical community has yet to find a way to test for the condition or to explain the causes.
What is Energy Tapping – TFT and EFT?
Energy tapping techniques, such as Emotion Freedom Technique (EFT) and Thought Field Therapy (TFT), were originally developed in the 1980, and are use widely by therapists around the globe. However, they have yet to be adopted by the medical fraternities.
It is strange that such a widely used set of techniques has not received funding for scientific research and peer reviews in the way that pharmaceuticals have.
Energy tapping uses physical tapping on different parts of the body, associated with Chinese meridians. TFT uses specific tapping algorithms for specific psychological issues, whilst EFT uses more generic patterns. To be effective, tapping also requires the person’s focus to be directed towards the right thoughts and feelings.
