What does a treatment involve?
Quite simply, the patient is first asked to think about their particular problem which, amongst many others, can be an anxiety state, a phobia, a trauma, a loss, or a feeling of anger or of guilt. They are then asked to quantify their feelings on a scale of 1 to 10, with a 10 representing maximum distress. Next, they are asked to tap on his or her own body in specific places, or energy points, in a defined and precise order. Following the treatment the patient is asked, once again, to think about their problem as clearly and as negatively as possible. Typically, the patient reports that they cannot do so at all! At this point the patient is now free of their problem as they can no longer evoke the psychological distress they once experienced. A cure has been effected.

Is TFT painful in any way?
Not at all. No needles or other instruments are used, nor does it require you to talk at length about your problem, something that can cause considerable distress in itself. 

Does TFT have any side-effects?
By side effects, most people mean unpleasant side-effects. The answer is simply "No". However, recent evidence using Heart Rate Variability analyses has shown that successful TFT treatment has at least one very beneficial side effect - the rebalancing of the autonomic nervous system.

How successful are the techniques?
Using TFT algorithms alone a success rate of around 80% can be expected. Individual diagnosis by a diagnostically-trained practitioner raises this figure to around 90- 95%. And all this within a few minutes. No other treatment presently available, conventional or complementary, can claim the same success rate, speed and completeness.

I am very skeptic. What if I don't believe the treatment will work?
It makes no difference. The treatments work whether you believe in them or not.

What proof is there that TFT has beneficial effects on the nervous system?
Recent clinical evidence obtained from the use of the Heart Rate Variability (HRV) test, which is not subject to placebo effect nor to researcher manipulation, has provided conclusive proof that successful TFT treatment also rebalance the sympathetic and parasympathetic contribution to autonomic nervous system function.

How long does the effect last?
Once all aspects or complexities of a problem have been successfully treated (i.e. all perturbations have been removed from the Thought Field) and anything that may have undone the cure has been identified and eliminated, the effects appear to endure over time.

*Thought Field Therapy (TFT) is a highly effective adjuvant and complementary approach to medical and psychological health practices. Some TFT work may require approval from a licensed physician or psychologist. TFT is never intended to replace medical treatment or severe psychological treatment. It can be regarded, by its emphasis on the use of internal resources for therapy, as a non-medical therapy which accomplishes its results without direct external intervention.
