WHAT IS EMI?

Eye Movement Integration (EMI) was developed by Connirae and Steve Andreas of Colorado, USA in 1989. EMI is a neuro-therapeutic method for accessing and integrating traumatic memories and experiences. EMI is astonishingly rapid in its effects, freeing clients from the burden of unresolved memories of almost any form of trauma - from childhood abuse to car accidents; from rape to natural disasters to combat situations - in just one to three treatment sessions.

Research has shown that our eye movements are connected to our memory networks. Through guided eye movements we can also access these memory networks and reprocess them. Through the eyes we thus have a perfect entrance to the brain and old trauma memory.
