Tapas Acupressure Technique is a simple technique for use in anxiety disorders, phobia, trauma, allergies and problematic relationships. It is particularly useful in mass trauma such as natural disasters like Tsunami or 11th September scenarios.
TAT is less language intensive than some other forms of intervention. TAT is child-friendly; one need only focus the individual's attention on the issue as they see it. It is therefore important that the person is very clear about the issue. The therapist need not be privy to the details.
People can utilize TAT themselves whenever they feel stressed and need to correct or alter any undesirable situation.
