About Healing Touch

What is it?    Healing Touch is a benign, non-invasive therapy, which works to balance the body’s energy system to support self-healing. It is an integrative therapy which works with – not in place of – any other medical treatment which the client is receiving. Healing Touch is classified as an energy therapy which interacts with the bio-magnetic field surrounding the body and the energy centers within the body, often referred to as chakras. This energy system is part of our life force -- or what some cultures call qi.

How is it done?   I use my hands to channel energy while you are seated or lying down, completely clothed. My hands move over your body, lightly touching, if you give permission. Through heart-centered intention and skill, I use my hands to re-establish the natural flow of energy. Healing Touch practitioners do not force or push energy but allow balance and harmony to “reboot” the energy system.

Who would benefit from Healing Touch?   Cancer patients receiving chemotherapy or radiation, cancer survivors who continue to suffer pain, fatigue, confusion; individuals preparing for, or recovering from surgery; individuals with chronic pain; mothers who have recently given birth; individuals who have weak immune systems; individuals making a change in their lives; headache sufferers; or anyone who wants to enhance their wellness.

What is Distance Healing Work?    Energy work crosses the miles and can be done with the therapist in one location, and the client in another! Prayer is a form of energy work that has been used for centuries! Quantum physics supports the concept – and what about cell phones, television, and radio??? My clients attest to the fact that they feel it!

Personal Statement:    Healing Touch has allowed me to integrate my nursing practice with holistic and complementary methods that expand health and healing beyond the physical body.  I believe that when one’s mind and body are relaxed and in proper balance, one is then ready to receive healing whether one chooses conventional medicine or some other means. In Healing Touch, I have learned a therapy that not only shares my vision, but professes it as its primary goal.  My nursing experience includes over 10 years in oncology so I look forward to working with cancer survivors at any stage of their treatment. (Please note that Healing Touch is not by itself a cancer treatment, but is a supportive therapy.)

The energy channeled in Healing Touch is a divine love energy which moves through the heart. The power of love to heal is my joy!

“Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.”
