TAT (Tapas Acupressure Technique)

A simple yet powerful head pose that eliminates negative emotions, pain and more!

Another meridian based therapy is TAT. It was developed in 1993 by founder and discoverer Tapas Fleming who trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture. After a treatment she had she was enlightened about using Bladder Urinary 1 points with Pituitary point and the occipital area of the brain- the visual points on the head for treating allergic reactions. She had a client with a dust allergy and she treated those points not with needles but by holding them. The allergy disappeared, she was able to improve on this procedure and update it adding procedural steps to heal traumas, fears, phobias, negative emotions, limiting beliefs and physical and emotional pain.

How it works

Holding the TAT points – either side of bridge of nose centers all of our meridians and their energetic flow straight to the brain and nervous system in flow with the Piturity master gland point and the visual occipital part of the brain.

Cellular memory and trauma

Quite often we have the same health complaints or anxiety symptoms as our parents and ancestors just as we do similar traits like hair colour size etc. We carry much from our parents and ancestors we derived from our parents bodies and carry their cellular memories in part with us.

Tapas work as an acupuncturist would see client’s body’s as live energy fields and where there was trauma held in the cells it was like watching stagnation in these energy fields. When these cells hold on to the trauma pattern the energy becomes stuck and that stuck energy is often in the organ associated with the trauma. For instance, anger possibly liver, lungs grief, kidneys fear etc, they do not have to even follow a particular order. We are able to apply TAT directly to a part of the body as equally as to a direct thought field. When TAT
eliminates the stress of the trauma within those cells those cells become stronger in healing and dealing with other stress factors that may come along.

Using TAT, a person doesn’t have to have a conscious of what happened. The TAT pose itself along with your focus on a trauma creates a connection between the cells’ memory and your function of vision. You “re-view” the trauma and it is integrated in a few moments.

TAT is a way of saying to your whole body-mind: “Have another look at this.” It is an opportunity to change, based on taking a new look, rather than continuing to look away. By taking another look, within the context of TAT’s direction of the body’s energy flow, the charge that is still being held is removed from the past event and the event can now be integrated into your whole system.

I would say that TAT reunites a person with parts of himself or herself that have been locked away or frozen in time. There are many ways to describe the results of TAT. Integration, harmony, peace, unity, connectedness, relatedness, oneness and wholeness are a few of the terms people have used to express how they feel after doing TAT.
