Healing Touch is a relaxing and nurturing energy therapy that helps to restore the balance and flow of energy within a person's biofield and body, encouraging a return to health and wholeness. The client remains fully clothed, typically reclining on a massage table although treatment in a chair is also possible. Using gentle touch or hand movements just off the body, the practitioner uses techniques to balance energy, remove congested aspects of the energy field, reduce pain, and restore the flow of energy within. It is a complementary therapy to standard medical care.
