How did it start?
Originated by Roger Callahan, who wrote a book called Thought Field Therapy (TFT). Callahan was interested in the acupuncture meridians and discovered, quite by chance that tapping with fingers on certain acupuncture points seemed to relieve a client of a long-held water phobia. He continued to experiment and developed TFT. Many of the simpler Energy Therapies were developed by students of TFT.

How does it work?
The truth is, no-one knows exactly how it works, we just know it does! MET is based upon the discovery that imbalances in the body’s energy system can have a profound effect on a person’s psychology. Feeling an unwanted negative emotion causes the energy flow in the body (the meridian) to be disrupted. Correcting these balances is done by tapping on certain points on the meridians with two fingers, whilst simultaneously thinking or feeling the negative emotion. The method is very simple and can be taught to people to use for themselves.

What can be treated?
It can be applied to all negative emotions such as anger, resentment, sadness, guilt, grief and even depression. It is also effective for treating anxiety disorders such as panic attacks and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and even post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
