It is used by therapists all over the world. When illness, injury, chronic stress, or trauma interrupts the energy flow in the meridian system, it becomes blocked. Backaches, fatigue, and other ailments start to surface. EFT works because it unblocks the energy system of the body through the use of tapping on specific body acu-points while the mind is focused on the memory, problem, stress, or pain.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1043\" data-end=\"1578\">Palomar Professor of Counseling, Tom Ventimiglia is EFT Certified. He has given EFT training to counseling professionals and therapists, presented workshops at community colleges and universities, and works in private practice. Participants can learn to use EFT on themselves to relieve test anxiety and other performance issues. There are over 100 peer reviewed, randomized studies that validate its success on anxiety, depression, substance abuse, trauma, and many other issues.
