In a world of intensifying stress, emotional strain doesn’t always sit in our heads — it can show up in the body, too. From pain to fatigue, we know that unresolved emotional wounds can be felt intensely in the body. At Grandview Physiotherapy, we understand the connection between mind and body, which is why we offer Custom Tapping Therapy in conjunction with our whole-person therapy approach.

What Is Custom Tapping Therapy?

Tapping, also known as Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), is a treatment that utilizes gentle tapping on meridian points (the same points used in acupuncture) while focusing on specific affirmations. And custom tapping? It goes even deeper, adjusting every session to correspond with your emotional trigger, trauma, or thought pattern.

Whether you struggle with anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, or chronic stress, personalized tapping enables you to focus on the emotional aspects of the issue, not just the superficial signs of it.

Understanding the Mind-Body Connection

There is a growing body of scientific research on how emotional trauma (in particular when not processed) can lead to physical problems over the long term. These include:

• Tension headaches
• Neck and back pain
• Digestive disorders
• Chronic fatigue
• Immune suppression

The body stores emotional pain in muscles, tissues, or postures the body remembers. This is why the body-only focus can fall short. The body and the emotional trauma causing the pain need to be treated to heal.

How Custom Tapping Supports Emotional Healing

Interrupts the Stress Response: Tapping soothes the nervous system by activating the parasympathetic response and reducing cortisol (the stress hormone) in the body.

Releases Stored Emotional Energy: The body safely processes old memories, pain, and trauma while tapping on specific acupressure points and discussing emotional triggers.

Rewires Thought Patterns: Personalized affirmations are designed to counteract negative thoughts with a positive message and to alter your response in any situation.

Enhances Physical Treatment Outcomes: Frequently, patients notice that their physiotherapy or rehabilitation success ‘inexplicably increases’ once emotional barriers are removed by tapping.
