Healing Touch & Therapeutic Touch
What is it?
Healing Touch and Therapeutic Touch are biofield-based approaches developed within nursing and healthcare settings. Both involve practitioners working with the body’s surrounding biofield through gentle touch or hands held near the body with the intention of supporting balance, relaxation, and healing.
Why it matters
These approaches have been studied in hospitals, academic medical centers, and clinical settings for their potential role in reducing pain, anxiety, stress, and improving patient well-being. They are among the more researched biofield therapies and have helped bring conversations about energy healing into mainstream healthcare.
