There are many ways in current holistic psychology for people to deal with instances of trauma. These have the common trait of combining some form of circuitry and intention. “Intention” refers to the process of having the client focus on and meditate upon an emotion, trauma, or symptom. “Circuitry” is some physical way to access the body’s storage system, as in acupuncture.

Splankna Therapy is unique in that its protocol uses three styles of circuitry. The first is called “direct access,” in which the practitioner asks the client to touch the point on their body where a trauma is located, based on an initial prayer for guidance from the Lord. As the client touches these meridian points, he or she thinks about the emotion felt during the time of the trauma.
The next protocols are algorithm work and bi-lateral brain stimulation. Here, the Splankna practitioner will walk the client through the tapping algorithm, moving quickly from one acupuncture point to another while the client focuses on the specific trauma or its emotional content. Bi-lateral eye movements are included at the end of each algorithm sequence as the client continues to tune into the trauma. Here, he or she follows the practitioner’s fingers as the brain gets assisted in resolving “stuck” trauma processes.
Most importantly, Splankna won’t exist without its dependence on prayer. The premise is that if we ask God to lead and heal us, He will. Each Splankna session begins with the client’s submission to the will of God. We humble ourselves before Him, asking that He allows the Holy Spirit to guide us in locating the points in our body and soul where trauma is stored. God’s grace comes in the form of spiritual resources to guide us forward and allow us to be truly, holistically healed.
