Case series👥 1 participantsPreliminary✓ Source-checked📍 Indonesia
In plain English. A nurse used SEFT (a spiritual variant of EFT tapping) with one tuberculosis patient experiencing anxiety, once a day for three days. The patient's anxiety gradually decreased. This is a single case report, so it only illustrates a possible approach rather than proving effectiveness broadly.
