EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), often referred to as “tapping”, is a gentle yet effective method that combines elements of modern psychology with principles of traditional Chinese medicine. By gently tapping on specific acupuncture points on the body while focusing on a particular issue, EFT can help regulate the nervous system and release emotional stress that may be held in the body.

​

Matrix Reimprinting is an advanced method based on EFT. It works on a deeper level by exploring the underlying memories and experiences that can influence our present thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Rather than simply relieving symptoms, Matrix Reimprinting allows these experiences to be revisited and positively transformed within a safe and supportive environment.

​

How does it work?

​

Distressing or overwhelming experiences can remain stored in the body and subconscious without being fully processed. They may continue to influence how we feel and respond long after the event itself. EFT helps calm the emotional response to such experiences, while Matrix Reimprinting offers a way to bring about lasting changes in how these experiences are processed internally.

Tapping on the endpoints of meridians (energy pathways) is intended to harmonise the body’s energy system. Studies suggest that stimulating these points while verbalising problems calms the brain, particularly the limbic system, which is involved in emotions such as fear.

​
