About This Article

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) tapping offers scam victims a self-help tool for managing stress and trauma. Combining elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine and psychology, tapping involves stimulating specific acupressure points while focusing on emotional issues related to the scam experience.

By addressing disruptions in the body’s energy system, tapping aims to alleviate emotional distress and negative thought patterns. While SCARS shares this technique as a potential aid, it advises consulting with a therapist before starting.

EFT tapping involves identifying the issue, rating its intensity, creating setup statements, tapping on specific points, and reevaluating emotional distress levels. EFT tapping can empower scam victims by promoting emotional regulation, trauma processing, cognitive shifts, empowerment, and physical relief, but it’s not a substitute for professional therapy.

Employing Self-Help EFT Tapping Therapy for Scam Victims: A Potential Technique to Reducing Stress, Trauma Management and Recovery

What is EFT Tapping?

EFT Tapping (or Emotional Freedom Techniques Tapping,) is a form of alternative self-help therapy that combines elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and modern psychology. It involves tapping on specific acupressure points on the body while focusing on particular emotions or issues – which in this case will be your recovery from the scam.

The technique is based on the belief that disruptions in the body’s energy system can contribute to emotional distress and negative thought patterns. By tapping on these meridian points, practitioners aim to restore balance to the body’s energy system and alleviate emotional or psychological symptoms.

Please Note: SCARS is sharing this with you in the hope that you will find it of use. SCARS cannot guarantee that this will work for everyone, and as always we recommend that you review this with a therapist before starting any new activities.

EFT tapping typically involves the following steps:

Identifying the Issue: Identify a specific emotional issue or problem that they want to address, such as acceptance of your situation, the anxiety it is causing, acknowledging that the scam was not your fault, the stress from this crime, any financial loss, or a past trauma.
Rating the Intensity: Rate the intensity of their emotional distress before you begin on a scale from 0 to 10, with 0 being no distress and 10 being the highest level of distress.
Setup Statement: While tapping on the karate chop point (the fleshy part of the hand below the little finger), the individual repeats a setup statement that acknowledges the issue and affirms self-acceptance. For example, “Even though I feel anxious about my scam, the betrayal, and my loss, I deeply and completely accept myself and that it was not my fault.”
Tapping Sequence: Tap on specific acupressure points on the body, such as the top of the head, eyebrows, side of the eye, under the eye, under the nose, chin, collarbone, and under the arm, while repeating a reminder phrase that focuses on the issue. Such as, “I am a Survivor, It was NOT My Fault, I am not alone, AXIOS”
Reevaluation: After completing several rounds of tapping, reevaluate the intensity of your emotional distress and compare it to the initial rating.
Repeating as Needed: The individual continues tapping and repeating the process until the emotional distress has significantly diminished or disappeared.

EFT Tapping is often used to address a wide range of emotional issues, including anxiety, phobias, trauma, depression, and stress. While research on EFT tapping is still limited, some studies suggest that it may be effective in reducing psychological symptoms and promoting emotional well-being. However, more research is needed to understand its mechanisms and effectiveness fully.

Step By Step – Using EFT Tapping

The step-by-step guide on how to implement EFT tapping on yourself:

Identify the Issue: Begin by identifying the specific emotional issue or problem you want to address. As a scam victim, this is going to be the scam, the betrayal, the relationship, the lost money, and anything else that you want to focus on.
Rate the Intensity: Rate the intensity of your emotional distress on a scale from 0 to 10, with 0 being no distress and 10 being the highest level of distress. This will help you track your progress throughout the tapping session.
Create a Setup Statement: While tapping on the karate chop point (the fleshy part of your hand below the little finger), create a setup statement that acknowledges the issue and affirms self-acceptance. For example, “Even though I feel anxious about [the issue], I deeply and completely accept myself.” We recommend that you use the SCARS Recovery Program affirmations: “I am a Survivor, It was NOT My Fault, I am not alone, AXIOS”
Tapping Sequence: Tap on specific acupressure points on your body (see video below) while repeating a reminder phrase that focuses on the issue. Here are the tapping points:
- Top of the head (crown)
- Eyebrow (beginning of the eyebrow, near the bridge of the nose)
- Side of the eye (near the temple)
- Under the eye (below the pupil)
- Under the nose (above the upper lip)
- Chin (in the crease between the chin and the lower lip)
- Collarbone (where the collarbone meets the sternum)
- Under the arm (about four inches below the armpit)
Tap and Repeat: Tap each point 5-7 times while repeating your reminder phrase. You can use phrases like “This anxiety,” “This stress,” or “This fear.” As you tap, focus on the issue and allow yourself to feel the associated emotions.
Reevaluate: After completing a round of tapping, take a moment to reevaluate the intensity of your emotional distress. Compare it to your initial rating and notice any changes.
Repeat as Needed: Continue tapping and repeating the process until the emotional distress has significantly diminished or disappeared. You can repeat the entire sequence multiple times if necessary.
Final Assessment: Once you feel that your emotional distress has decreased to a manageable level, take a final assessment of your feelings. You may also want to revisit the issue in future tapping sessions if needed.

Remember, EFT tapping can be a highly personal experience, so feel free to modify the tapping points, phrases, or sequences to suit your individual needs. Additionally, it’s important to practice self-compassion and patience throughout the process, as emotional healing takes time and consistency.

After the EFT Tapping Exercise

After completing an EFT tapping session, there are several post-tapping exercises that can help increase or maintain the benefits:

Deep Breathing: Engage in deep breathing exercises to promote relaxation and further reduce stress or anxiety. Take slow, deep breaths in through your nose, hold for a few seconds, and then exhale slowly through your mouth. Repeat this several times to calm your nervous system.
Mindfulness or Meditation: Practice mindfulness or meditation techniques to cultivate present moment awareness and promote emotional balance. This can involve focusing on your breath, body sensations, or simply observing your thoughts without judgment.
Positive Affirmations: Repeat positive affirmations related to the issue you addressed during the tapping session. Affirmations can help reinforce positive beliefs and shift negative thought patterns. For example, if you tapped on anxiety, repeat affirmations like “I am calm and at peace” or “I trust in my ability to handle challenges.”
Journaling: Write in a journal to reflect on your tapping experience and any insights or emotions that arose during the session. Journaling can help deepen your understanding of yourself and the issues you’re facing, as well as track your progress over time.
Physical Activity: Engage in physical activity such as walking, jogging, yoga, or tai chi to release tension from your body and further enhance relaxation. Exercise has been shown to reduce stress and improve mood, making it a beneficial complement to EFT tapping.
Visualization: Use visualization techniques to imagine yourself feeling calm, confident, and empowered in situations that previously triggered stress or anxiety. Visualizing positive outcomes can help reprogram your subconscious mind and reinforce the benefits of tapping.
Gratitude Practice: Cultivate a sense of gratitude by focusing on the things you’re thankful for in your life. Expressing gratitude can shift your perspective from negativity to positivity and enhance feelings of contentment and well-being.
Self-Care Activities: Engage in self-care activities that nourish your mind, body, and spirit. This could include taking a warm bath, spending time in nature, listening to calming music, or indulging in a hobby you enjoy.

By incorporating these post-tapping exercises into your daily routine, you can prolong the benefits of EFT tapping and promote better overall emotional well-being. Experiment with different techniques to find what works best for you and make self-care a priority in your life.

Why Does EFT Tapping Work?

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) tapping is a form of psychological acupressure that involves tapping on specific points on the body while focusing on a particular issue or emotion. While the exact mechanisms behind its effectiveness are not fully understood, there are several theories about how EFT tapping works in the body and brain:

Stress Reduction: EFT tapping is believed to activate the body’s relaxation response, reducing levels of cortisol (the stress hormone) and promoting a sense of calm. By tapping on acupressure points, it may help release tension and decrease overall stress levels.
Regulation of the Amygdala: The process of EFT tapping may help regulate activity in the amygdala, the part of the brain involved in processing emotions, particularly fear and anxiety. Research suggests that tapping on specific points may help deactivate the amygdala’s response to emotional triggers, leading to a reduction in emotional intensity.
Stimulation of the Body’s Energy System: According to traditional Chinese medicine, tapping on specific meridian points helps to balance the body’s energy flow or chi. By tapping on these points, EFT may help remove blockages in the energy system, restoring balance and promoting emotional well-being.
Cognitive Reframing: While tapping, individuals typically focus on the specific issue or emotion they want to address. This process may involve cognitive reframing, where they reevaluate their thoughts and beliefs about the issue, leading to a shift in perspective and emotional response.
Distraction and Relaxation: The rhythmic tapping motions used in EFT may serve as a form of distraction, redirecting the individual’s attention away from negative thoughts or emotions. Additionally, the physical act of tapping can induce a state of relaxation, further reducing stress and anxiety.

Overall, EFT tapping appears to work through a combination of physiological and psychological mechanisms, helping to alleviate emotional distress and promote a sense of well-being. While more research is needed to fully understand its effects, many individuals report significant benefits from incorporating EFT tapping into their self-care routine.

The Research on EFT Tapping

The research on EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) tapping has been growing steadily over the past few decades, with studies examining its effectiveness for various psychological and physical conditions.

Please NOTE: SCARS presents this potential approach for your consideration only, Like with all potential therapeutical techniques we leave this for you to discuss with your counselor or therapist to decide if this is right for you.

Here’s an overview of the state of research on EFT tapping:

Psychological Conditions: Numerous studies have investigated the use of EFT tapping for psychological conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), phobias, and stress. While some studies have shown promising results in reducing symptoms and improving well-being, more high-quality research, including randomized controlled trials (RCTs), is needed to establish its efficacy definitively.
Physical Conditions: Research also suggests that EFT tapping may have beneficial effects on certain physical conditions, including chronic pain, fibromyalgia, and headaches. Again, while preliminary findings are promising, further research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms of action and effectiveness for different health concerns.
Brain Imaging Studies: Some studies have used neuroimaging techniques such as EEG (electroencephalography) and fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying EFT tapping. These studies have provided insights into how tapping affects brain activity and stress response systems, contributing to our understanding of its therapeutic effects.
Meta-Analyses and Systematic Reviews: Several meta-analyses and systematic reviews have been conducted to synthesize the findings of multiple studies on EFT tapping. While some reviews have reported positive effects on psychological symptoms, others have highlighted methodological limitations and called for more rigorous research designs.
Clinical Applications: EFT tapping is increasingly being used in clinical settings as a complementary therapy alongside conventional treatments. Some healthcare professionals incorporate tapping into their practice for conditions such as anxiety disorders, trauma, chronic pain, and addiction.

Overall, while there is growing evidence supporting the potential benefits of EFT tapping for various conditions, more high-quality research is needed to establish its efficacy, understand its mechanisms of action, and determine optimal protocols for different populations and contexts. Additionally, ongoing efforts to standardize training and certification for EFT practitioners can help ensure the quality and safety of its use in clinical practice.

Helping Scam Victims

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) tapping may be beneficial for traumatized scam victims in several ways:

Emotional Regulation: Scam victims often experience intense emotions such as fear, anger, shame, and betrayal. EFT tapping can help regulate these emotions by calming the body’s stress response system, reducing the intensity of negative feelings, and promoting a sense of calm and safety.
Trauma Processing: EFT tapping can assist in processing and releasing traumatic memories and associated emotions. By tapping on specific acupressure points while focusing on the traumatic experience, individuals can gradually reduce the emotional charge attached to the memory, allowing for healing and resolution.
Cognitive Shift: Scam victims may struggle with negative beliefs about themselves, such as feeling foolish or gullible. EFT tapping can help shift these beliefs by addressing underlying self-esteem issues and promoting self-compassion and acceptance.
Empowerment: Engaging in EFT tapping empowers scam victims to take an active role in their healing process. By learning a simple and effective self-help technique, individuals regain a sense of control over their emotional well-being and can use tapping as a tool to manage future triggers or stressors.
Physical Relief: Trauma often manifests not only as emotional distress but also as physical symptoms such as tension, headaches, or stomach problems. EFT tapping has been shown to alleviate physical symptoms by reducing stress levels and promoting relaxation in the body.

It’s important to note that while EFT tapping can be a helpful tool for trauma recovery, it is not a substitute for professional therapy or counseling. Scam victims experiencing severe or prolonged distress should seek support from a qualified mental health professional who can provide comprehensive assessment and treatment tailored to their individual needs.

SCARS Educational Content

PLEASE NOTE: Psychology Clarification

The following specific modalities within the practice of psychology are restricted to psychologists appropriately trained in the use of such modalities:

Diagnosis: The diagnosis of mental, emotional, or brain disorders and related behaviors.
Psychoanalysis: Psychoanalysis is a type of therapy that focuses on helping individuals to understand and resolve unconscious conflicts.
Hypnosis: Hypnosis is a state of trance in which individuals are more susceptible to suggestion. It can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including anxiety, depression, and pain.
Biofeedback: Biofeedback is a type of therapy that teaches individuals to control their bodily functions, such as heart rate and blood pressure. It can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including stress, anxiety, and pain.

Neuropsychology: Neuropsychology is a type of psychology that focuses on the relationship between the brain and behavior. It is often used to assess and treat cognitive impairments caused by brain injuries or diseases.

SCARS and the members of the SCARS Team do not engage in any of the above modalities in relationship to scam victims. SCARS is not a mental healthcare provider and recognizes the importance of professionalism and separation between its work and that of the licensed practice of psychology.

SCARS is an educational provider of generalized self-help information that individuals can use for their own benefit to achieve their own goals related to emotional trauma. SCARS recommends that all scam victims see professional counselors or therapists to help them determine the suitability of any specific information or practices that may help them.

SCARS cannot diagnose or treat any individuals, nor can it state the effectiveness of any educational information that it may provide, regardless of its experience in interacting with traumatized scam victims over time. All information that SCARS provides is purely for general educational purposes to help scam victims become aware of and better understand the topics and to be able to dialog with their counselors or therapists.

It is important that all readers understand these distinctions and that they apply the information that SCARS may publish at their own risk, and should do so only after consulting a licensed psychologist or mental healthcare provider.
