(1) Where
do I begin?
Gary Craig offers a free beginners EFT manual on his
web site that describes details of how to use and apply
his treatment technique. While the technique is simple
and effective, I recommend you receive thorough training
in its use by visiting Gary’s web site, http://www.emofree.com,
to complete his tutorial and certification training, attending
classes offered by trained energy therapy clinicians, or
visiting one of Dr. Patricia Carrington’s web sites, http://www.
eftsupport.com or http://www.eftupdate.com.

(2) How
can a single treatment method address such a variety
of issues?
The discovery statement of EFT states that
“the cause of all negative emotion is an imbalance
in the energy system.” All reactions, feelings, responses
or physical symptoms can be addressed by balancing the
energy system with EFT.
“The unique approach… shows how you can work with your body’s
energies to shift your neurology and actually alter the patterns in your brain
that maintain unwanted habits, maladaptive emotional responses, and self-limiting
ways of thinking. With this strategy, stubborn phobias often fade in minutes;
the lifelong effects of an early trauma can be reduced or completely eliminated;
uncontrollable anger can rapidly become manageable; even physical problems
may respond positively where other treatments have failed.” From
the book The Promise of Energy Psychology, David Feinstein, Donna
Eden, and Gary Craig
(3) Are
there any contraindications to using EFT ?
The research so far has indicated there are no contraindications to using EFT. To date,
minimal side effects have been reported other than occasional
temporary fatigue. However, this does not mean that you
will not experience adverse side effects. Consult a professional
EFT practitioner for professional application of these
techniques.
(4)
Is there anything that prevents EFT from working?
Occasionally, the targeted issue is approached too
globally which results in ineffective relief. In rare
cases, energy toxins such as perfumes or certain foods
produce an allergic reaction in an individual’s
energy system and retard, or temporarily reverse treatment.
Skilled EFT practitioners will spot this block and
be able to treat the client effectively. While not
perfect, EFT has an extraordinarily high success rate
of 85%. Usually, when EFT appears to have no effect,
it has been found that additional aspects of the problem
need to be addressed with EFT first.

(5)
Can I treat myself?
Absolutely; this is why I offer many books,
DVDs and audio CDs to guide you. However, many people
consult EFT practitioners for the objectivity and experience
that will likely insure successful treatment. (Finding
a Practioner)
(6) Suppose
my illness has lasted decades or is an inherited condition?
EFT has been shown to alleviate symptoms regardless of duration, etiology,
or family history.
(7) How
long will the treatment last?
It is difficult to predict this outcome, however, indications are that long-lasting results are routine when using EFT appropriately. If you or the practitioner
successfully treats the core of the problem, it has been shown to provide permanent relief.
(8)
How long will it take to be successful with me?
Some symptoms, like certain phobias or issues connected
to single events, have been shown to clear in one round of EFT (“one
minute miracles”), however, complex issues can consist
of several smaller inter-related problems that must first
be treated before healing can occur. Be persistent and
patient. EFT practitioners should be consulted
for complicated issues and your physician should be a part
of any treatment that involves medical related issues.
(9) Can
EFT be used for children?
Yes, usually with superb results. Gary’s has
devoted a large section on his website about EFT and
children: http://www.emofree.com/articles.aspx?id=9
