Heel Pain & Shoulder Pain

success2u — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 03:09:12 GMT

Hi,

I'm somewhat new to EFT and have gained some valuable knowledge from the sharing of information I've seen on this forum. I have two issues I would really appreciate some assistance with. I have right shoulder joint pain (bursitis) that started about 3 months ago. I thought it was aggravated from painting a room but it persists. I also have very uncomfortable heel pain on the bottom and back of my left heel. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank You. Jeanne

How does one use EFT to eliminate the pain or even the disease gout?

Please shine some light for me

Intro: Living a Full Life with Chronic Pain.

Gary Rocha — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 12:14:01 GMT

Hello -

This is to introuce myself as one who is living a full Qaulity Life by Managing Chronic Pain.

Hi ... my name is Gary Rocha, a retired Canadian now living in Europe. EFT was referred to me by some friends on the Internet whom I have not personally met, but whom have been very supportive of me..

I trust that this is another direction I'm being guided to take, which has been the case ever since my 'process' started in earnest shortly after my release from hospital. Being as I am new here, I have not fully read the site, which I already see holds much information! However, just from a quick scan over the site and this (taken from above): It is an emotional version of acupressure wherein certain meridian release points are gently stimulated by tapping on them with the fingertips. I think the technique is not totally foreign to me, as I underwent a similar technique called Body Work with my own therapy! The difference however, is the pressure for application on the meridian lelease points.

The reading I think will prove very interesting!

hi there everyone and thank you for takin gtime to read this, i am truely greatful for your time.

i am having stabbing pain on my right heel / achillies tendon and i have had this since monday. i have tried eft'in myslef and lots of diff aspects of why the pain is there, but with no joy, the intensity doesnt even change!

how it happened - i was stretching calf and soleus (muslce of the lower leg) on monday in my studio and something kinda twinged i suppose. then it gradually got worse.

past stuff - i am 27 just now and i first had problems with this leg with calf cramps 2-3 times from the age of 13/14 to 16, crapms were so bad i had to sit for 2hrs or more before it would ease. around 17 i was told i had achillies tendonitis which flared up occationally. at 18 i stretched the tendon and ligaments of this foot by landing on the outside of my foot when playing basketball, coming down from a rebound. i was put in an open cast. at 20 i was told i had patella femoral dysfunction, something to do with the knee cap??? i got treatment for this also (all physio).

i now know that if i suddenly explode with a sprint of speed that i get a sudden stabbing pain which makes me pull up and to others is very obvious that something went wrong. i also cannot do explosive jumping, like plyometric work, jumping sports of any kind as the pain (tendonitis) will flare up in my right heel.

i understand the deeper meaning of pain than a physical injury in the body, i am an eft level 2 , CHEK HLC level 2, CHEK Exercise Coach and a Reiki practitioner. so i know about the chakras and energy blockages to a certain level.

i have tried using setups like

all this pain in my right heel / ankle

all this pain in my right achillies tendon

ive described it as stabbing / pain / ache / shooting

ive used the colour of it

ive thought about how this pain slows me down

how the pain stops me walkin properly, therefore stoping me taking those steps i need to

ive used that its on my right leg, im right handed therefore it is regarding a male, either myself or my dad ( as this is what my teachings have taught me)

ive used that its to do with security

im really stuck and frustrated with this

any ideas? lol

Hi Lesley,

You are welcome! And thank you for your courage for sharing so deeply. Lesley, you definitely have some big emotional issues that could be related to the pain in your foot. I would tap on all three.

So, you might start with your job and your feelings about the move. Lesley, you want to make a list of all the things that you hated about having to go from the large wing to the main building. Also, how did you feel about it? Angry? Sad? Some set-up phrases could be, Even though:

I hated working at the main building, I deeply and completely love and accept myself
I didn't want to move to the main building, and I felt angry at management for not caring about me, I deeply and completely love and accept myself
I didn't feel that it was fair for management to shut down the large wing, and I felt _____________,... (fill in the blank here, then finish with: I deeply and completely love and accept myself)

Get to the bottom of how you felt by making a list of all the things that you didn't like about it and how each things made you feel. Let's say that anger is the main feeling that comes up for you. Measure your intensity level of the emotion (SUDS level) before you tap, and also note what the pain level is in the ball of your foot (get really specific as to the location of the pain). See how low you can drop the emotional intensity of your emotions--then check the pain level of the ball of your foot.

Lesley, losing both your daughter and your grandmother in just six months--I feel deep compassion for your extreme loss. When we have large traumatic losses like yours, it can be challenging to deal with all of the emotions AND go to work, too. The grief could create a lot of stress in your life (and appear as pain in your foot or some other symptom). My friend, you have had a lot to deal with. I am not sure that this forum can fully deal with all that you may have on your plate (what are the feelings that you have about your daughter's suicide? anger, despair, deep sadness, overwhelm... and then losing your grandmother?) What I know for sure is that whatever is going on, EFT can help you heal and move on. It may help your foot or help prevent something else from happening in your body.

If you don't know where to begin, Leslie, find an EFT practitioner that can help you work through ALL of your emotions.

Gratefully yours,

JoAnn

Hi Lesley,

Thank you for joining our forum.

I think that you ask a really good question, what do you do when you don't know the core issue? I would like to add that an EFT practitioner would help you get to what is underneath the pain in your foot by asking you questions.

Here are a few questions that might help you get to what is underneath the pain in the ball of your foot:

What traumatic event happened slightly before the pain started in your foot?
You might want to explore your emotions pertaining to work (Do you have any unsettled feelings about work or anyone at work?)
Do you have any misunderstandings with anyone at work?
What would be a benefit of your foot continuing to hurt? What old story about work would be fed by your foot hurting?

Leslie, see if any of these sef-up phrases might work for you, Even though:

there is part of me that doesn't want my foot to get better because I have a story that work is hard, and my foot hurting makes my job extra hard, I deeply and completely love and accept myself
EFT has worked for a lot of people, but I don't think that it will work for me because I have tried really hard...
I have a fear of the future, and of not stepping forward in life...

Try tapping on these and see if you get any thing coming up for you. Pay attention to the voice in your head.

Let me know if any of these ideas help.

Gratefully yours,

JoAnn
