How Can I Use EFT to Get Rid of Pain?
by Kay Christopher, MA, EFTCert-II, Certified EFT Practitioner

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) often produces seemingly miraculous results where pain is concerned. It is this very fact that helped me first realize the immense value EFT has to offer.

The first time I used EFT on someone she had back pain that, on a scale of 0-10, was a 10. After one "round" of EFT (one minute) the pain was reduced to a 2. After a second round the pain went to 0 and never returned.

Needless to say, I was flabbergasted by this result! So I tried EFT on others and, sure enough, was able to get similar results (sometimes not as permanent) and I quickly became a believer. For example I have had clients who:

• Had shingles and reported pain that was a 5. EFT took the pain to 0.
• Even on morphine, had so much pain from cancer and related issues that it was difficult to get out of bed. The client reported the pain starting as a 5 and EFT took it to a 1. He was able to then get up, get dressed and go out for the day.
• Was dealing with reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome (RSD), reported pain that was an 8 and was unable to touch his leg at all due to the pain. After an EFT session the pain was a 1 and he was actually able to rub his leg with no resulting pain—for the first time in a very long time.
• Scheduled surgery to relieve extreme pain from a broken foot. After a few minutes of EFT the pain was gone and the surgery was cancelled.

I have many, many more such stories from clients that include the relief of migraines, pain from an injection of blood thinner (usually accompanied by an extreme burning sensation), pain from a frozen shoulder, sore throat, stomach pain, love pain from a broken heart, etc.

Sounds unbelievable that anything could produce such amazing results so quickly, doesn't it? I would think so, too, except that I have witnessed the "miraculous" relief EFT has given these people.

Why is EFT so powerful? It addresses two areas that are generally missed by the medical community:

1) The subtle energies of the body. If they are disrupted the result can be pain and disease.
2) The role of emotions in the experience of pain. Since emotions produce biochemical effects in the body, they definitely can cause pain.

How can you use EFT to get rid of pain?

The EFT tapping procedure is deceptively simple. It only takes moments, but it is so powerful! Learn the basic technique and then start applying it to whatever is bothering you—be it physical or emotional—and see what happens. Many people experience immediate results. Others take a little longer to get the hang of it. Give it a try. You have nothing to lose but things you don't want anyway, like pain!

Here are some sample setup phrases to get you started:

General: Even though I have this pain, I deeply and completely love, forgive, and accept myself.
More specific: Even though I have this aching pain that is about the size of an egg in my left shoulder I deeply love and accept myself.
With emotion: Even though I have this sharp pain in my knee and I am sick and tired of living with it, I deeply and completely love, forgive and accept myself anyway.
