Finding the Right Tapping Points
The tapping points, and their abbreviations, are explained below, followed by a chart of the points. They are presented below in the exact order in which they should be tapped.
The abbreviations for these points are summarized below in the same order as given above. It is, again, the order in which they should be tapped:
1. Top of the Head (TH)With fingers back-to-back down the center of the skull. 2. Eyebrow (EB)
Just above and to one side of the nose, at the beginning of the eyebrow.3. Side of the Eye (SE)
On the bone bordering the outside corner of the eye.4. Under the Eye (UE)On the bone under an eye about 1 inch below your pupil. 5. Under the Nose (UN)
On the small area between the bottom of your nose and the top of your upper lip.6. Chin (Ch)Midway between the point of your chin and the bottom of your lower lip. Even though it is not directly on the point of the chin, we call it the chin point because it is descriptive enough for people to understand easily. 7. Collar Bone (CB)The junction where the sternum (breastbone), collarbone and the first rib meet. This is a very important point and in acupuncture is referred to as K (kidney) 27. To locate it, first place your forefinger on the U-shaped notch at the top of the breastbone (about where a man would knot his tie). From the bottom of the U, move your forefinger down toward the navel 1 inch and then go to the left (or right) 1 inch. This point is referred to as Collar Bone even though it is not on the collarbone (or clavicle) per se. 8. Under the Arm (UA)On the side of the body, at a point even with the nipple (for men) or in the middle of the bra strap (for women). It is about 4 inches below the armpit. 9. Wrists (WR)
The last point is the inside of both wrists.
