(For Humans...) Healing Touch is a western form of Energetic Healing developed by health care professionals to provide both comfort and care to patients and clients. Healing Touch is based on the underlying assumption that a universal energy field surrounds each of us and that our bodies contain subtle energy centers which affect our health and ability to heal.
Healing Touch Practitioners influence the energy field that surrounds the body and the energy centers in the body, positively impacting the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health of the recipients of these treatments.
The goal of Healing Touch is to empower the patient or client to activate their own energy systems to restore balance, harmony and wholeness as well as to allow self healing to occur. Healing is a very unique experience guided by the client and their specific needs.Healing Touch is not a substitute for health care, but is a complementary therapy used in collaboration with other medical treatment.
