Healing Touch assists in creating a balanced energy field, supporting one’s inherent ability to heal. Our bodies have the wisdom and ability to heal themselves. Doctors and other healthcare professionals simply direct and facilitate that healing process. For example, a physician may “set” a broken bone, but it is the body itself that actually heals the break.
The goal of healing touch is to restore harmony and balance in the human energy system, thus enhancing the patient’s ability to self-heal.
It is safe for all ages and works in harmony with standard medical care.
Hands on healing and energy therapies have been used by all cultures for millennia. Healing Touch is used in collaboration with Western medicine and other integrative approaches to achieve health and healing. It is used in a wide variety of environments including hospitals, long term residential care facilities, private practices, hospices and day spas. It has also been adopted internationally by universities, medical and nursing schools.
Healing Touch is a relaxing, nurturing, energy therapy using gentle touch to balance physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. It was created by Janet Mentgen RN, BSN, utilizing a collaboration of healing interventions across the globe to create the practice of Healing Touch.
Healing Touch is endorsed by the American Holistic Nurses Association (AHNA) and is now accredited by nursing organizations throughout the world.
You lay on a massage table, fully clothed, and hands are gently placed on and above your body, while the practitioner moves and clears energetic blockages, re-establishing a balanced flow of energy. The power comes from the Divine (God) using intention, unconditional love and compassion. The general feeling is one of being fully relaxed, refreshed and revived.
