A six-week online course using Clinical EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) helped participants reduce body weight, depression symptoms, and their sensitivity to food triggers while sustaining long-term weight loss benefits. However, the program showed no significant effects on PTSD symptoms or anxiety, and improvements in happiness levels were not statistically significant.

A mixed-methods study explored the impact of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) on chronic pain sufferers, revealing significant reductions in pain severity and psychological distress. The study combined qualitative insights into patients' experiences with quantitative measures, demonstrating EFT's potential effectiveness in improving well-being.
