 Integral eye movement therapy (IEMT) is a psychotherapy model that aims to reduce intense negative emotional states. In this model, the patient is asked to recall and maintain a negative image of an event that was experienced in the past. Meanwhile, the therapist asks the patient to move the eyes in specific directions. The typical outcome of IEMT is the reduction of negative emotions with an event or an image in mind. Integral eye movement therapy (IEMT) is a psychotherapy model that aims to reduce intense negative emotional states.

 This development followed the observation of a number of neurological phenomena that occur during the therapeutic eye movements, specifically at the moment that the problematic imagery changed its emotional coding.  This development followed the observation of a number of neurological phenomena that occur during the therapeutic eye movements, specifically at the moment that the problematic imagery changed its emotional coding. 
  
 From this followed the development of a set of applications of these phenomena that enabled Integral Eye Movement Therapy to be applied to the areas of neurological imprints specifically, imprints of emotion, and some imprints of identity. From this followed the development of a set of applications of these phenomena that enabled Integral Eye Movement Therapy to be applied to the areas of neurological imprints specifically, imprints of emotion, and some imprints of identity.

-A trademark claim by Ron Klein that threatened IEMT trainers with legal action for breach of trademark in 2019 due to the similarity of the names "Eye Movement Integration" and "Integral Eye Movement Therapy" was disproven after it was demonstrated that Ron Klein had no legal claim to the "Eye Movement Integration" trademark in the USA. The trademark had long expired and the US trademark office has declared "Eye Movement Integration" to be a descriptive term in the public domain and not a trademark and therefore is no longer subject to trademark protection. +A trademark claim by Ron Klein that threatened IEMT trainers with legal action for breach of trademark in 2019 due to the similarity of the names "Eye Movement Integration" and "Integral Eye Movement Therapy" was disproven after it was demonstrated that Ron Klein had no legal claim to the "Eye Movement Integration" trademark in the USA.
