EFT Case – Get to the root cause!

Recently a client presented to me with fever and deep fatigue. In her business she had excelled for several months and then it seemed that she could not work or get anything done. She was in a healing crisis since none of the tests done by her MD were showing anything wrong which could cause the fever and fatigue. She was referred to me by a friend.

I asked her a set of questions and then led her in a couple of tapping sequences… all in a half hour.

First, I asked for all of her symptoms. I also had her fill in an on-line wellness check which tells me which of her meridians are under stress. See: http://wellnesscheckonline.com .

Next I asked when the fever & fatigue had started. I also asked about medications she might be taking.

Then I asked her what was going on in her life around the time she started feeling ill.

Two months before she had started to feel bad. This was right after her son, daughter-in-law, and new grandbaby had left to live in Europe. She reported that she developed a case of acid reflux and had gone to a doctor for tests and treatment. He put her on a medication for the acid reflux. Then she started to experience fever and fatigue. The fever got as high as 104 one day and she returned to the doctor who placed her on antibiotics.

My wellness analysis showed that she was having issues with the liver and gall bladder meridians and that all of her intestinal track was out of balance and stressed.

So, we discussed all of this briefly and it seemed to me that the underlying cause of everything else was her grief, anger, resentment, and guilt about having her son and family return to Europe. She was heart-broken and had not discussed this with others, feeling that she was supposed to be strong and not show emotions.

We tapped on her feelings about her family members moving so far away and how she would miss them and that new grandbaby.

In that short session we tapped on several aspects of her emotional pain and gave her tips on how to tap for herself. She was also advised to discuss with her physician the emotional aspects and to potentially get off of the acid reflux medications as well as the antibiotics. The latter probably killed the helpful bacteria in her intestinal track and the former might be the cause of the fever.

In my opinion her body needs to re-balance itself – without the influence of drugs. And, she must continue to clear the emotions she has been blocking since her son left.

I recommended that she continue to work on clearing the stuck emotions and that she consult her physician to discuss adjusting or getting off of the medications. The root causes of her symptoms seemed to me as emotion-based, so this is what we went after to clear, and this is the protocol that I follow with others also.
