Empirical Support for my Methodology
How Does a Healing Circle Work?
Empirical Support for My Methodology:
Approximately sixteen years ago, the well-established Institute of Neuroscience in Argentina encouraged looking for treatment methods in order to obtain better outcomes in their eleven outpatient clinics in Argentina and Uruguay. Dr, Joaquin Andrade, spearheaded their efforts. They began experimenting with energy psychology techniques (specifically, Thought Field Therapy) and for fifteen years, the research team collected data to assess effectiveness of treatment. In a double-blind study of 29,000 patients, contacted at 3, 6, 9, and 12 month intervals, they recorded a 60-70 percent success rate.
In 2001, Joaquin Andrade, M.D., learned Process Healing from Garry Flint, PhD, used Process Healing with his patients and conducted a study. He treated 100 patients who had not been treated successfully with either standard medical care, nor with energy psychology techniques, and obtained positive results in 60 percent of those cases. It's reasonable to assume that the Process Healing method would be effective with all the cases treated successfully with energy psychology. If this were true, then one could estimate that Process Healing would be effective with between 84-89 percent of all patients who were treated in the clinic.
As I was developing my own approach to healing, I was fortunate to meet Garry Flint and honored and privileged to help edit his book, Process Healing. I quickly realized that Process Healing was a more advanced and refined version of the healing approach I had been developing. Process Healing draws on the power of metaphor to heal at the unconscious level of the mind.
