BodyTalk is the latest holistic approach to feeling and living better by having a practitioner basically find places in your body that are not in alignment and, somehow, helping their clients to overcome all sorts of maladies that traditional medicines might have failed at helping.

How does this work? Well, once you work through a lot of talk about cells and atoms and balance, what you find is that it works through a process known as tapping, something it has in common with Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), but only viscerally. With BodyTalk, it’s the practitioner who is doing the tapping, first finding those areas of the body in disarray by touching parts of your body, then tapping certain areas to alter the flow of, well, whatever it’s altering, to help bring your body into alignment and thus promote better health.

Does it work? That depends on who you ask. For instance, there are many women who say that BodyTalk has helped them overcome symptoms from things such as headaches, PMS, anxiety, and a host of other things. There are stories of people who use BodyTalk along with traditional medical processes such as chemotherapy. And a few people have claimed it’s helped them with psychological disorders such as obsessive compulsive disorder.

Then there’s the other side which says that there is no scientific studies that prove this process has any effect what so ever. There is no real way to study something like this as a clinical process. In some instances, participant are not even sick they are just looking for ways to better relax. There has been to study to date that tests a population of people on something like that.

In a way, it’s like the Reiki healing technique, only with touching instead of, well, not touching. How well it works probably depends on what the patient is looking for and how willing they are to be emotionally guided towards feeling better. The truth is that it’s painless and not invasive, which pretty much means it’s harmless for someone to try if they so choose. The results? Hard to say, but if one goes in with an open mind it could probably work as well as a placebo.
