HEALING TOUCH
Healing Touch is an energy therapy that aims to promote and facilitate physical, emotional, and mental health.
Healing Touch is categorized as a biofield therapy. Biofield therapies focus on the manipulation of the interacting fields of energy and information that surround living systems to stimulate healing responses in patients.
Healing Touch uses touch to influence the human energy system: specifically, the energy field that surrounds the body (biofield) and the energy centers that control the flow between the energy field and the physical body (chakras).
The Healing Touch therapist uses non-invasive techniques through the use of her hands, which can be placed gently on the client's body or above the body. The practitioner cleanses, reactivates and balances the human and environmental energy fields, affecting the physical, mental, emotional and energetic health of the client. During the Healing Touch session, practitioner and client come together energetically in a loving, heart-centered relationship, with the common goal of facilitating health and healing.
The goal of Healing Touch is to restore balance and harmony to the energy system, placing the client in a position to self heal.
Chakras are energy vortexes that connect our physical body with our subtle body.
