Healing Touch
Healing Touch is an energy therapy that strengthens and clears the biofield to facilitate physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. The practitioner uses light touch and non-invasive techniques to clear, energize, and balance the human and environmental energy fields, thus affecting physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health and healing. It is based on a heart centered caring relationship in which the practitioner and client come together energetically to facilitate the client's health and healing.
The goal of Healing Touch is to restore balance and harmony in the energy system, placing the client in a position to self heal. Healing Touch Research has been conducted in a wide variety of settings and with a number of different problems and situations including:
• Cancer
• Cardio-vascular disease
• Death and dying
• Endocrine/Immune function
• Pain
• Patient satisfaction and experience
• Psychotherapy/Psychology
• Post operative recovery
• Stress
These studies demonstrate that there is support for considering Healing Touch for providing integrative care and that patients evaluate it highly. Healing Touch research has been supported and/or funded by hospitals, universities, colleges professional organizations, private foundations, the National Institutes of Health, and Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
What to expect in a HT Session
Healing Touch results in a deep sense of calm and relaxation in the body-mind-spirit. The treatment is typically administered while the client lies on a massage table with their clothes on. With your permission, the practitioner uses his/her hands to assess your biofield and proceeds to clear and balance it as needed using either off body touch (near body but no direct contact) or a gentle (still) touch over various areas of the body. Occasionally, a person may experience an acceleration of the healing process and his/her symptoms may intensify for a brief time. When this happens, the recovery period of the illness is usually shortened.
