Using Acupressure Points
to Heal
A licensed acupuncturist takes us through the 12 main channels of

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT): Instruction and History
* EFT is a meridian energy therapy - just like acupuncture, it works directly
on the meridian system in the body. But instead of needles, you stimulate the
major meridian points by tapping on them or massaging them lightly, focusing on
the pain or a problem at the same time.
* EFT is a self help protocol, designed
for ease of use and so everyone can benefit from Emotional Techniques without
prior knowledge about meridian system.
