What Is Clinical EFT?

​

Clinical EFT, also known as "Tapping", is a gentle, evidence-based method for reducing stress and emotional overwhelm. It’s a needle-free version of acupuncture, sometimes called "emotional acupuncture."

​

EFT combines the following  3 therapeutic approaches:

• Cognitive therapy: Identifying and addressing limiting thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that contribute to emotional distress.

• Exposure therapy: Focusing on negative emotions, thoughts, or sensations to address the root causes of stress.

• Somatic stimulation: Tapping on acupressure points to release stored stress and tension in the body.

​

A gentle, body-based approach

 

🖐️ EFT involves gently tapping specific points on the face and upper body with your fingertips, rather than using needles.

🧠 Because it involves touch and body awareness, EFT helps calm the nervous system through the body—not just the mind—making it a truly somatic practice.

🌿 This body-based method supports deep emotional release and helps you feel more grounded and calm.

Why "Clinical" EFT?

​

Unlike quick versions seen on social media, Clinical EFT is grounded in science and is used in clinical settings by trained practitioners.
It's a structured, research-backed approach that can be tailored to your unique needs—whether you're working with stress, anxiety, trauma, chronic pain, or emotional overwhelm.
