How does Havening Work

Havening is a neuroscience backed technique, through which gentle touch is used to identify, recall and rewire responses to negative experiences.


1. Recall the traumatic experiences. You can share them with the practitioner, but if it is too painful to express it in words, then you only need to think about it

2. To de-link the emotional stressor associated with traumatic events, havening touch is applied. This touch becomes the reason for the generation of Delta waves in the brain. These waves set off electrochemical reactions which dissolve the encoded memory from the brain via reducing the receptor at the encrypted neural channel.

3. At that stage, distraction techniques are applied, and after the activation of traumatic memory, the practitioner uses distraction therapies to calm the client.

4. This is the last step. Here the practitioner evaluates the negative effect of triggering traumatic memory and suggests further sessions to the client.
