Therapeutic Touch
The following description is a combination sentences taken from web sites listed below and put together for your quick reading. I suggest you go to the web sites at the bottom for a more detailed and thorough description of this modality and bibliographies for research and other professional articles on the topic.
Therapeutic Touch ™(TT) is a contemporary healing modality drawn from ancient practices and developed by Dora Kunz and Dolores Krieger. The practice is based on the assumptions that human beings are complex fields of energy, and that the ability to enhance healing in another is a natural potential. Over thirty doctoral & post doctoral dissertations as well as master theses have been done on Therapeutic Touch™.
Therapeutic Touch™ is used to balance and promote the flow of human energy. It is taught in colleges around the world and has a substantial base of formal and clinical research. This research has shown that TT is useful in reducing pain, improving wound healing, aiding relaxation, and easing the dying process. It can be learned by anyone with a sincere interest and motivation towards helping others.
Therapeutic Touch™ is a non-invasive procedure in which practitioners use their hands a few inches from the body in a variety of ways using calm and rhythmic hand movements to assess, clear, modulate and move areas of energy imbalance in the field. TT is a process that is always individualized and usually does not exceed 20 minutes. It may be as short as 5 minutes. The recipient remains fully clothed. TT is generally considered safe. Some of the reported side effects include nausea, dizziness, restlessness, and irritability. The client is advised to rest for a 10 to 15 minutes following the procedure and to drink water.
Therapeutic Touch™ is NOT able to diagnose illness, nor is it meant to take the place of sound medical advice. Treatments do not deplete the effectiveness of medical treatments or medications.
