How EFT Works
Dr. Peta Stapleton’s research has played a key role in the growing acceptance of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT or Tapping) as a legitimate therapeutic intervention. In a randomized controlled trial, she demonstrated a 58% reduction in anxiety after just one hour of tapping—highlighting EFT’s potential effectiveness for psychological conditions such as anxiety.
What experts say about EFT
“EFT is a stress reduction technique, but what makes it different from other talking therapies is that we add a somatic, body-based element—tapping on known acupuncture points while staying focused on distress. What’s powerful is that the entire body responds. We see physical changes, not just subjective ones. That’s the power of EFT. It’s versatile and effective for so many conditions. People often ask, "Why does EFT work for so many things?" The common denominator is stress. Whether it’s depression, anxiety, chronic pain, or to reduce the effects of chemotherapy, the autonomic nervous system is involved across all these conditions. EFT regulates that system."
— Dr. Peta Stapleton, Clinical Psychologist and EFT Researcher
"As an EFT Master Trainer and former MD, I have witnessed firsthand the profound impact of EFT Tapping on both physical and emotional well-being. By addressing the root emotional triggers and calming the amygdala, Tapping allows individuals to release deeply held stress and beliefs, often achieving rapid and lasting results. This transformative technique offers a powerful path to healing that is both time-efficient and deeply empowering."
— Dr. Gabriëlle Rutten - Medical Doctor and Certified Gold Standard EFT Practitioner www.noveteft.com
“Tapping is one of the most directed and powerful ways to peel away those layers of chronic stress. It’s very effective for very difficult problems.”
— Dr. Mark Hyman, Functional Medicine Expert and Bestselling Author
“Studies show that people who use Tapping recover very quickly from whatever ails them, often in just a few sessions. Whether you use it to reduce physical symptoms or for changing limiting beliefs, Tapping has the effect of releasing the emotional memories associated with your symptoms or beliefs.”
— Dr. Christiane Northrup, OB/GYN Physician and Pioneer in Women’s Holistic Health
“EFT Tapping sends a message to the amygdala to release the fight-or-flight response. When we choose to acknowledge and neutralize these inner fears, griefs, and wounds, they no longer trigger the amygdala and create imbalance.”
—Dr. Kim D'Eramo, Mind-Body Physician and Founder of the American Institute of MindBody Medicine
"I have seen tremendous benefits and outcomes that would not have been possible with traditional talk therapy – at least with the kind I was employing, and definitely not in the same amount of time I have seen. Not only does [EFT] seem to be more effective, but it works over a shorter period of time and with longer lasting results."
—Dr. Damon Silas, Clinical Psychologist and Certified EFT Practitioner
"EFT is the most amazing and powerful tool ever. When I first discovered it, it was like I had gone through my whole mental health career with a stick and someone just gave me a light saber."
—Zadaya Zimmerle, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
“Chronic anxiety, like stress, is very damaging to your mental and physical health, temporarily shutting down your immune system. Long-term anxiety raises your risk for depression, hypertension, hormone imbalance, cancer, and many other serious health problems. One of the most effective tools against anxiety is EFT, which helps correct the biochemical short-circuiting that occurs with chronic anxiety.”
—Dr. Joseph Mercola, Osteopathic Physician and Advocate for Natural Health Alternatives
