Customer Reviews

Comment on previous review, March 26, 2000 from "A Reader"

I must comment on a previous review as it contains incorrect information which may dissuade people from reading this book. In his review of March 26, 2000 "A Reader" writes "Read Swenson, Skeptical Inquirer, 1999, Vol 7, No. 4 for a review of this quackery." There is no Vol 7, No. 4 1999 issue of Skeptical Inquirer magazine that I can find on the csicop.org website. There is a online article from the July/August 2000 issue by Gaudiano and Herbert that I found that covers a superficial review of TFT. This is a standard academic "review" of the literature and complains that no scientific study has been done to date. I'm not surprised at the lack of study. More like lack of open mindedness. I have seen TFT and other tapping work on people including people who were skeptical. It does NOT work on me for some unknown reason. I would encourage readers to read this book and other books on this subject and make up their own minds. This area needs more research not bad reviews by a person who did not read the book and is closed minded.

An Excellent Guide in Helping Self and Others

This is an extraordinary book written by an expirienced therapist in the field of Meridian Therapies. Dr Gallo gives us quite enough theory and history about developing techniques such as TFT, EMDR, TAT, NAEM... But the value in this book is authors PRACTICAL approach. By learning methods described here one is able to become a really high efficient therapist and can give lot of relief and benefit to oneself and others.Dr Gallo bravely and openly shared with us many secrets of the Energy Psychology. We just need to take the keys and open the door.I personally thank to the author as I gained much sucess for me and for other people by applying the techniques that I learned from his book. And really, this wasn't so hard to achieve.I give my strong recommendation about this book to everyone who is willing (and brave enough) to start learning on the path that leads to helping self and others.

A handbook for the innovative therapist

This book is very comprehensive in the explanation of Thought Field Therapy and Applied Kinesiology, among other topics. In his one book Gallo seems to say what Callahan (TFT creator) says in many books. As a student working in a clinic where TFT, EMDR, VKD are frequently used, I find this book extremely helpful.

Emotional Energy Work Made Clear

In a very readable style, this dynamic book provides a comprehensive overview of all the different methods of relieving emotional disturbance by working with energy fields. Dr. Gallo clearly and concisely explains the essential dynamics of each energy approach. The specific detail and photographs of the methods used in Thought Field Therapy greatly assist both the new energy therapist and the experienced practitioner to understand the ins and outs of this dynamic new psychotherapy. I devoured this book, which was filled with gems of new knowledge in each chapter. My thanks to Dr. Gallo for putting this all down in such a powerful little package! --by Barbara Stone, Ph.D., author of CANCER AS INITIATION: SURVIVING THE FIRE

Excellent explanation, theory & practice of energy therapies

A great book for either novice or experienced medical/psychological practictioner. After first giving an excellent summary of various psychological approaches, this book offers a fascinating and beautifully documented explanation of the origins and practice of the various energy therapies. In addition to covering the TFT methodology in great detail, Gallo also provides the basics of ESR, EFT, TAT, and NAEM. Gallo never loses sight of, or respect for the basic healing capacity innate in all of us.
