About Energy Field Therapy

Interacting with human and animal energy fields to diagnose and treat disease has been practised in China and the Far East for thousands of years, where it has been developed to a very high level of sophistication. During the last few decades this wisdom has steadily spread westwards across Europe to the U.K.

Energy Field Therapy is a modern form of these ancient energy practices. I studied EFT over a 12 month period in the U.K. from 1998 - 1999 and subsequently supplemented these teachings by studying with the internationally renowned Author and Teacher Master Mantak Chia, at both the Healing Tao University in the USA and the Universal Tao Centre in Thailand.

Why "Energy Field Therapy?"

The term Energy Field Therapy simply describes the process of interacting with the energy (electromagnetic) field that surrounds living organisms, with the intention of healing.

How is it possible to detect imbalances in the field?

The ability to sense and interact with the energy fields of people and animals, to create healing is not a psychic phenomenon; it is a natural faculty that everybody possesses. All it requires to be developed is a commitment to increase the sensitivity of the senses by the regular repetition of focused exercises.

When we pass our hands in front of a television screen, for example, we can all feel the electromagnetic radiation called "static." If we devote time to increasing our sensitivity to this form of energy, we can begin to sense the more subtle energy around all living things.

Consider the incredible rapidity with which blind people can read Braille. Yet if you or I were to put our fingers over the dots, we would find it extremely difficult to even feel the indentations on the page, never mind form an impression of the pattern that is there, or detect them with speed!

Imagine hearing like a conductor of an orchestra - distinguishing individual notes or instruments in a whole movement of music! These examples illustrate beautifully how, with dedication and training, any one of our sensory faculties can be cultivated to a considerably greater level of refinement.

How can normal flow and electrical activity be recreated in the field?

The treatment phase of Energy Field Therapy consists of creating the external energetic conditions that most favour the restoration of a vibrant balanced flow of energy through and around the body.

This is achieved by the therapist making gentle hand movements several inches to several feet away from the surface of the person's body, in such a way that the electromagnetic interaction that occurs between the two fields allows stagnant energy to be dispersed, depleted energy flow to become strengthened by the influx of natural energy conducted by the therapist and disrupted energetic patterns to clear. By varying the direction of these movements and their speed and location within the field, different energetic configurations can be created to facilitate normal electrical activity to resume.

This is analogous to the use of the magnetic field of one magnet to affect the field of another by varying the speed, direction, distance and polarity of the first relative to the second. We can also think of this process as rather like the creation of a vortex in a bowl of water when we stir it with one of our hands. By varying the movements of our hand, we can alter both the speed and the direction of the current produced.

In practical terms, this means that the person's field is scanned every few minutes to monitor the dynamic fluctuations in energy as they occur and the hand movements are continually adjusted to ensure that they are consistently encouraging the energy to flow, as it should. It is this interactive component, in which the therapist responds directly to the individual requirements of a particular person's field as it changes, that enables this form of treatment to be so effective. In a very real sense, it is in fact the energy field of the person being treated that directs the whole treatment process.

The improved energy flow that results from this interaction activates powerful self-healing mechanisms.

Following a course of treatment with EFT, the healing reaction that accompanies the energetic adjustments and releases continues for approximately 8 to 10 weeks, after which the therapy can be repeated to maintain the momentum of change for as long as this is desired.
