I offer my thanks and appreciation to Gary Craig. In recognizing the huge potential of the psychological and meridian techniques developed by those who came before him, in creating EFT, and in finding innovative ways to share it with the world, Gary has contributed to transformational improvements in the quality of life for tens of thousands of people who have studied and practiced his work.  Gary, I thank you.

Gary Craig, EFT Founder

Ruthi Backenroth works with men and women who:

1. •suffer with chronic back pain,
   

2. •are frustrated with traditional approaches,
   

3. •are committed to getting lasting relief.
   

My clients have tried traditional methods and are open to something new and different. They want effective relief from pain, stress, and anxiety, at work and at home.  Using results oriented techniques I teach clients mental exercises which actually relieve pain.

I learned about this alternative technique when I was at wits end, having tried 'Sarno', physical therapy, vitamins, herbs and lots more for my own aching back. After decades of pain, my back is perfectly comfortable now.  As an added bonus, I am more relaxed and creative about work deadlines and social interactions.

After using these techniques, my own skills as a grants writer catapulted in areas of productivity, creativity and time management.  Co-workers commented on the calm and competent presence I brought to the office, and my employer noticed my increasing success in getting grants awarded to our clients.

In 2000, I returned to school, earned an MBA and graduated with the honor of Delta Mu Delta. As the highest ranked student I was asked to speak at the graduation ceremonies. I had to decline because of state-freight. I recently took the opportunity to speak from the stage and fear of public speaking is not an issue anymore:)

EFT Experience

As a certified Advanced EFT Practitioner (AAMET Level 3), I combine knowledge of EFT, NLP (neuro-linguistic programing) and eye-movement techniques, with a gentle and sensitive approach for physical (and emotional) pain relief.

3 year old - 'Cutipie' ran out of the pool because she was splashed on her face.  She was crying and would not come back into the pool.  I came over and tapped, "they splashed you, water got on your face, now you are scared to go in, you are a great kid, I love your bathing suit, is it new?" tap...tap...tap...  Two minutes later Cutipie was splashing in the water as carefree as she could be.

90 + years old, my all time favorite story - My mother had been trying to get her friends to tap with me. Not an easy sell:) A woman came over and started talking about how she wakes up in the middle of the night and how upsetting it is.  We tapped for a minute or two and I suggested that she tap under her arm if she wakes up at night.  The next day, I asked about her night.  "The tapping didn't work.  I woke up in the night."  'And what happened when you woke  up?';  "I tapped and started laughing about how my husband (who passed away 2 years before) would respond if he saw me doing this.  It didn't work."   'How do you usually feel when you wake up in the night?'; "I am usually so angry and upset that I don't know what to do with myself."; 'So maybe the tapping helped a little?'
