Release whatever holds you back
Emotional Freedom Techniques (also known as ‘EFT’ or ‘tapping’) combines elements of cognitive ‘talk’ therapy whilst using your fingertips to tap on traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture points on your hand, head and upper body
Tapping is a self-applied evidence-based technique which studies have shown to be very effective in reducing the body’s stress response.
Tapping is a simple tool that clients can learn to use on their own, with lasting effects.
The practice was pioneered by a psychologist in the 1980s and has developed into a technique used by millions around the world.
Research suggests that tapping deactivates the amygdala (the brain’s stress centre) and hippocampus (memory centre), regulating the autonomic nervous system.
Clinical research trials have shown that the action of tapping on acupoints whilst focusing on an issue can reduce the levels of the stress hormone cortisol in the body.
Clinical or evidence based EFT has been proven to be effective in treating the following:
Processing and releasing traumatic memories
Pain Relief
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Phobias
Cravings & Weight issues
Anxiety & Depression
Sports Performance
Testimonial
“Tapping with Sarah in only two sessions has helped me identify and draw out intense feelings of anger, grief and sadness that I hadn’t even realised I’d been supressing for years. Sarah’s empathy and compassion during our sessions made me feel safe and secure even when at one point I didn’t want to feel the sadness and considered stopping. Sarah guided me through it and now I feel a sense of relief, lightness and an emotional freedom that I didn’t know was available to me. Thanks to Sarah, I am now equipped and empowered with EFT tools when I need them and have confidence that it works for me.”
