EMDR buzzers, pulsers, and tappers use two vibration devices that a user holds in their hands, follow the light or strap onto their wrists. These devices create physical stimuli periodically and the timing is used to create stimuli on alternating sides of the body.
Without the device EMDR Specialists ask their clients to sit at a certain distance, slide their fingers left and right, and follow the client’s eyes and fingertips. In other words, they perform bidirectional stimulation with arm power.
On the other hand, EMDR devices support the specialist in this tiring process, bilateral stimulation is performed by the device. In this way, the specialist can focus completely on the Client.
Devices can perform bidirectional stimulation simultaneously with one or more of the visual, tactile and auditory options.
The chosen stimulation method is determined by how comfortable the client is.
EMDR therapy, like other therapies, can be applied online by creating the necessary conditions with the Internet and software technologies.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy.
EMDR therapy is a method that allows us to get out of the effect and relax by making sense of the disturbing events, memories and unrest that we experience and cannot get rid of.
EMDR is a type of psychotherapy, during which we reprocess the information belonging to our memories in our minds.
During EMDR therapy, the client is awake and conscious.
Troubled memories about previous experiences are identified with clients.
Then, while reaching the target memories, a sound, vibration and/or visual bidirectional stimulus is applied to the client.
It is recommended that EMDR therapy be administered by experts trained by accredited trainers. Although a few books published abroad deal with the subject of EMDR at home, it is not highly recommended.
