TAPPING TO REDUCE PAIN


This is a new buzz in the holistic field (even though it’s been around for a long time).  It’s worth trying.  You can do it yourself.
What does MTT mean?
MTT is an abbreviation for "Meridian Tapping Techniques." Notice that the official name has an "S" at the end, it is plural. This means that there are a variety of "techniques" and innovations that use meridian points as a basic standard. For a more in depth explanation, please download our free manual HERE. MTT derives from a variety of techniques that involve tapping on acupressure points along the meridians.
You can use two fingers to touch and tap on these points yourself, or someone can tap on the points for you. Most, but not all, Meridian Tapping Techniques also involve saying certain phrases that help you focus on the issue that you are working on and tapping for. A MTT Professional can help you learn the correct tapping points as well as guide you through a tapping sequence (or 'round' as they are commonly called) and assist you in saying phrases that will be of most benefit.
How does it work and what does it do?
MTT is based on the assumption that negative emotions disrupt the flow in the body's energy system. When energy patterns are disrupted due to physical, mental or emotional trauma, it is believed that the path of energy between neurons can be disrupted. Practitioners that utilize Meridian Tapping Techniques have found that when people release negative emotions, it may help the energy flow again. Many people often experience other positive results as well including:
  • Reduce or eliminate chronic pain (including back pain)
  • Reduce or eliminate migraines
  • Reduce or eliminate Fibromyalgia
  • Reduce or eliminate stress
  • Reduce or eliminate insomnia
  • Reduce or eliminate anxiety and panic attacks
  • Reduce or eliminate fears and phobias (claustrophobia, agoraphobia, social phobia, fear of heights, fear of flying, fear of public speaking, fear of the dark)
  • Increase the rate of healing injuries
  • Increase flexibility and range of motion
  • Improve weight loss
  • Improve concentration and focus
  • Improve eye sight
  • Improve overall health and well-being
  • And more…

EXERCISE TO LIVE LONGER


Countless studies link regular exercise with reduced disease risk. A recent study points out that individuals who exercise regularly are also likely to live longer than those who do not exercise. The report, published in the International Journal of Epidemiology (2011; 40 [5], 1382–1400), includes data from more than 1.3 million individuals across 80 studies. The goal was to identify possible parallels between all-cause mortality levels and physical activity levels.
“We estimated combined risk ratios associated with defined increments and recommended levels, using random-effects meta-analysis and dose-response meta-regression models,” the study authors explained. They found that subjects who exercised regularly had a lower mortality risk. Those who achieved 150 minutes of moderate activity each week reduced their risk by 10%; vigorous exercise garnered a 22% reduction. When the time was increased to 300 minutes per week, the risk fell by 19% for moderate exercise and by 39% for vigorous exercise. Women saw a greater risk reduction than men.
