Founded by Gary Craig in the 1990's, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) draw on various alternative medicine practices including acupuncture, neuro-linguistic programming and energy medicine. Treatment involves two-finger tapping on acupuncture points while using acceptance statement(s) to anchor the transformative intent. Depending on the EFT practitioner's level of training and scope of practice, it can be employed to address diverse physical and psychological conditions, including phobias, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and pain.

The Trust Technique® is an animal-assisted therapy approach developed by James French and Shelley Slingo. It focuses on developing trust, connection, and mutual understanding between humans and animals. The technique involves mindful presence, gentle touch, and observing the animal's body language and behaviour. By creating a safe and nurturing environment, the Trust Technique® aims to help animals release trauma, anxiety, and stress, and promote emotional healing and well-being. It also emphasizes the therapeutic benefits humans can experience through deepening bonds with animals. The Trust Technique® can be applied to various species, including companion animals, wildlife, and farm animals.
