Therapeutic Touch
Therapeutic touch is a holistic healing practice that involves the skilled use of touch to promote physical and emotional well-being. Practitioners believe that humans have an energy field that can be influenced by touch. During a session, the healer lightly touches or hovers their hands over the recipient's body to balance and restore this energy, potentially alleviating pain and stress. While some people find it beneficial for relaxation and comfort, scientific support for its effectiveness is varied, and it is often used as a complementary therapy alongside traditional medical treatments.
