Healing Touch

Healing Touch and Therapeutic Touch are energy based therapeutic interventions built on the philosophy of caring for the whole person: Body, Emotions, Mind, and Spirit. The goal in Healing Touch is to restore harmony and balance in the energy system to assist an individual to self heal.
Healing Touch is non-invasive, economical and effective. Healing Touch complements traditional approaches to health and healing. It is not a substitute for them. Referrals to and from physicians and other licensed health care professionals are an expected part of the practice of Healing Touch.
Energy Fields are common to everyone, yet unique for each of us. These fields surround each of us and contain the information that make each of us unique. Penetrating through the energy fields and going into and outside of the body are energy centers called chakras. Like the intestines are to digestion, and the blood is to circulation, so chakras are to energy. Chakras are areas of universal energy which manifests and maintains a physical body.
Healing Touch uses touch to influence the energy fields and chakra system. The practitioner strives to empower the client, restore harmony and balance in the energy system to help the person self heal.

Healing and Cure—A Holistic Health Approach

It is important to acknowledge the difference between healing and cure. Healing is a movement towards health, harmony, and wholeness. Healing can occur on a physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual level. Cure is defined as something which corrects or alleviates a harmful or troublesome situation. Healing and cure may occur simultaneously or independently. One may be cured of a disease but not healed. One may experience healing but not a cure of a disease. Healing touch is a tool that encourages and promotes self healing.
