The thumb and finger points are part of the long form of EFT, which isn't used very much these days, because in most cases the short cut version works well. If however you are tapping with the shortcut version and finding things aren't shifting, then you can throw in the thumb and finger points (and the 9 gamut procedure too) and see if that shifts it.
Best wishes,
