## What is EMDR Therapy?

This application uses many advanced digital technics and simulates EMDR therapy. EMDR is a technique recommended by psychotherapists and Psychologists.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched psychotherapy method proven to be effective and help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences which are including depression, PTSD, panic disorders, anxiety.

The American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association, the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies, National Alliance on Mental Illness, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the U.K. National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, the U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs/Dept. of Defense, The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and the World Health Organization among many other national and international organizations recognize and recommend EMDR therapy as an effective treatment.

First, put on your headphones, think of a traumatic and disturbing event. Follow the ball in the EMDR tool, focus on the transition of sounds in your left and right ears, and feel the vibrations. Thus, the effect of traumatic disturbing events that will provide the data flow between the right and left brain as in REM sleep will decrease.
Focus on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories.
While you bring the details of that memory to mind, This tool will guide you through a series of side-to-side eye movements, auditory (with direction), and vibrations. As you learn to process the memory and related feelings it brings up, you’ll gradually be able to reframe that memory in a more positive light.

Use three types of BLS: visual, auditory (with direction), and vibrations and modify your settings to suit your preferences.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is a form of psychotherapy developed by Francine Shapiro in the 1980s that was originally designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories such as post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In EMDR, the person being treated recalls distressing experiences whilst doing bilateral stimulation, such as side-to-side eye movement or physical stimulation, such as tapping either side of the body.

According to the theory behind the approach, traumatic and painful memories can cause post-traumatic stress when you don’t process them completely. Then, when sights, sounds, words, or smells trigger those unprocessed memories, you re-experience them.

The 2013 World Health Organization (WHO) practice guideline states that EMDR "is based on the idea that negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are the result of unprocessed memories. The treatment involves standardized procedures that include focusing simultaneously on spontaneous associations of traumatic images, thoughts, emotions and bodily sensations and bilateral stimulation that is most commonly in the form of repeated eye movements.

This re-experiencing leads to the emotional distress and other symptoms recognized as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
EMDR aims to reduce symptoms of trauma by changing how your memories are stored in your brain. In a nutshell, an EMDR therapist does this by leading you through a series of bilateral (side-to-side) eye movements as you recall traumatic or triggering experiences in small segments, until those memories no longer cause distress.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2026-07-13, version 7.4*

Thank you for creating this app.  First session walk through and I already feel better.

### 5/5 — Next level EMDR

*2026-03-02, version 7.4*

This takes it to the next level. Nothing out there compares with this app. Thank you for taking the time to make it.

### 5/5 — 감사합니다.Thank you.

*2026-02-03, version 7.4*

아주 좋은 어플입니다. It's a great help. I'd like to thank the developer for making such a good app available for free.

### 5/5 — 굿

*2025-12-29, version 7.4*

이 정도 완성도 높은 앱이 무료라니… emdr

### 5/5 — Its usable again

*2025-07-10, version 7.4*

I’ve been using this app with clients for some months now with great success. Unfortunately a recent update has slowed down the ball too much that even at max speed it was too slow. 

After the review, which I’ve now edited, the developer fixed the issue, so now the speeds are in the right range again. 

Thank you for your quick response and fixing the issue so promptly.

### 5/5 — Great app! (Updated)

*2025-03-04, version 4.0*

I’ve used this a few times, and love how it immerses you not the experience. Particularly beneficial is the auditory BLS with flows left and right. Amazing!  If you have any difficulty with the sound, check your audio settings, as well as any physical toggle switches on your device that turn sound on/off. If not, it could  affect how the audio plays. Great product and idea overall!  As an EMDR trained therapist, if you’re ever open to developing an additional tool, I know there’s a need for quality therapist tools to be used for in person and remote sessions too.

### 3/5 — Great app when it’s working!

*2025-02-26*

I’ve used this a few times, and love how it immerses you not the experience. Particularly beneficial is the auditory BLS with flows left and right. Amazing! The difficulty I’ve been having lately is that the audio won’t play at all, even with headphones designed for the left-right stereo sound of the BLS. The ball moves and the vibration works, but not the audio. Hopefully the developer can straighten this out! I don’t see a way to contact them. If the audio worked reliably, I’d have given this a strong 5/5! Been using an iPhone. Great product and idea overall!  As an EMDR trained therapist, if you’re ever open to developing an additional tool, I know there’s a need for quality therapist tools to be used in session too.

### 5/5 — Works a treat

*2023-12-15*

Calming in minutes as I distanced myself from the emotions and focused on the movement and music. Didn’t like the vibrations though, but you can switch them off. My breathing rhythm aligned pretty quickly and that might be why it was so calming. Whatever it was I will add this in and see what happens in the longer term.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2023-08-06, version 1.0*

Great job.
