History
Invented in 1993 by Ms. Tapas Fleming, a California licensed acupuncturist, the underlying idea claims that unresolved emotional trauma leads to a blockage of the natural flow of putative energy. Practitioners of TAT claim that self application of light pressure to four areas of the head (inner corner of both eyes, one-half-inch above the space between the eyebrows, and the back of head) while placing attention on a series of verbal steps releases this blockage and allows for healing. TAT was originally intended to be an allergy elimination protocol, however the emphasis switched to emotional trauma after the first few patients to experience this technique reported that a resolution of unresolved trauma was more prevalent than allergy relief.
