TPM is not a medical process. Neither is it a psychological or therapeutic process, although it can be used to accomplish many of the same ends desired through medical and psychological fields of endeavor. TPM is the study and use of processed to educate and bring about change within the mind and the body. Since the mind runs the functions of the body, when change is made within the mind corresponding changes often occur within the body. Through the principles and techniques of TPM, the mind/body connection becomes immediately evident. TPM and EFT are holistic process I have ever seen.
