This work offers caregivers, including nurses, allied health professionals, and lay persons, a basic introduction to Healing Touch (HT), an energetic approach to healing that works in conjunction with other methods of treating the body-mind interconnection. Authors and contributors are original founders of HT, and give step-by-step instructions for full-body and localized techniques and interventions for specific problems. They offer strategies for integrating HT within the traditional medical model and across various health care settings.
