Abstract Energy Psychology (EP) modalities, integrative methods that strategically involve accessing human energy for therapeutic purposes, enjoy a rich and diverse evidence base. As such, many attempts have been made to explain how they work. Explanations have primarily utilized a biological basis for explicating the mechanisms by which EP may function. These contributions are extremely
First of all, I am flattered to have my published speculations over the past decade about the mechanisms involved in the strong outcomes produced by acupoint tapping protocols elevated into what Debra Greene graciously calls The Feinstein Model and describes as the theoretical model that is the most widely accepted.
