TFT - Definition, Method, Application
TFT is an integrated,
meridian-based, mind-body-energy psychotherapy, which includes diagnostic
and treatment procedures performed while the patient is attuned to their
problem. In TFT, the negative emotions are alleviated through gentle
activation of designated acupuncture points, which neutralize or eliminate
the energetic cause of experienced problem
TFT is unlike any traditional psychotherapy and involves a paradigm shift.

The systematic use of the body's subtle energy system with thought and
emotion, and the rapid rate in which emotional problems resolve, set TFT
apart from other forms of psychotherapy. History: TFT was discovered in 1981 by Dr. Roger Callahan, a cognitive psychologist who had tried everything in his repertoire to help a woman with a lifelong, severe and apparently intractable water phobia. He decided to try a variation on a holistic, mind-body healing method he had been studying, based on the theory in Chinese medicine that energy flows along meridian lines in the body. These meridian points appear to act as a governing force in healing and growth. When the energy points are blocked or unbalanced, the person experiences emotional disturbance or what Dr. Roger Callahan calls "perturbances." He discovered that by directly treating the blockage in the energy flow created by disturbing thought pattern, the disturbance or upset disappears. It virtually eliminates any negative feeling previously associated with a thought. In an attempt to help Mary, his patient with the water phobia, he tested his theory. He asked her to think about water, tap with two fingers on the point that connected with the stomach meridian and much to his surprise, her fear of water completely disappeared. "The fear is gone!," she exclaimed and went running around the swimming pool behind his office. Not only had her fear evaporated but the apparent cure remains effective to this day. Callahan continued to expand on his discovery and has come up with a number of brief treatments or "algorithms." Algorithms are step-by-step procedures or sequences of body taps geared to particular conditions which patients can perform on themselves.
