What is Therapeutic Touch?

Therapeutic Touch™ is neither Quantum Touch, nor Healing Touch, nor is it a form of massage.  Therapeutic Touch is a modern application of ancient forms of healing which use the gentle laying-on of hands.  In Therapeutic Touch, the practitioner uses his/her hands in the client's energy field to facilitate healing.  The client remains fully-clothed, in a sitting or reclining position.  The practitioner usually moves his/her hands at a distance of a few inches from the body, although touching can be involved.

One of the underlying working assumptions of Therapeutic Touch is that human beings are open energy fields.  Any physical illness can be viewed as an imbalance in this energy field - as some form of disorder.  the intent of the Therapeutic Touch Practitioner will therefore be to restore this order in the energy field.  Intent is an important factor in the Therapeutic Touch process.  Energy flows where intention goes. 
 


Therapeutic Touch is never a replacement for proper allopathic care from a licensed health care professional.  It is an alternative therapy that complements medical treatment.
