Lots of potential factors but addressing one part of the body without looking at you as a whole person has resulted in a worsening state. Your poor shoulder is only trying to get your attention! If you can hear what it is saying then you have the chance to address the underlying causes.

Michele- sometimes the causes are really well hidden, usually our subconscious is trying to protect us from a difficult emotion. It could be that you have an issue with the reciprocal area of the foot which in your case is the left hand. The hands denote our ways of dealing with experiences- holding, handling, grasping, letting go. It might be worth looking for what else is going on when the tightness occurs. Feet represent our understanding of ourselves and others. What are the triggers?

In response to the energy v’s other factors question- it’s all energy one way or another. When your body is balanced it can cope with just about anything. In an EFT Nottingham session, your body tells me what it needs to be balanced to it’s environment, etc. When all aspects of the bodymind are communicating effectively your body is amazingly adaptive. So in a session I am aware of the many different factors that effect a client- but it is their own body that determines what the priority is.

Colleen- Migraine headaches can have as many causes are there are clients and each person brings their own unique history to a session. Dietary, hormonal, stress and emotional factors all have effects upon the body and mind but emotional factors can include self-criticism, resisting the flow of your life, being unable to ’stand’ in your own power, sexual anxieties and a fear of being driven by others.

I work with hormones, the organs and the bodily systems as well as the emotional responses and messages that a client is experiencing. They all need to be accounted for and listened to for effective and ongoing well-being to be maintained. In a session it is the client’s body that directs what needs to be addressed and in what order. The body ALWAYS knows the best way to deal with it’s OWN issues. A session at EFT Nottingham just allows your body to remember it’s own capacity to heal and then your body does the rest!

Thanks for your insights on individual physical issues.

Still looking for answers why people get migraine headaches. Why some are so debilitating? Are they hormonal?

I would also love to hear your opinion on when is it energy vs something in the foods we eat. For example there is hormones is so many products, meats, milks, butter etc…perfumes, lotions etc…..how do you know when that is causing the effect vs an unresolved issue?
