WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HEALING TOUCH? Hands-on-touch modalities are used by more than 30,000 nurses in hospitals each year. Healing Touch can occur in many settings and is appropriate for people and animals of all ages. Settings include hospitals, delivery rooms, hospices, accident scenes, homes, schools, clinics, and surgical centers. It has been shown in documented studies that with hands-on work surgical wounds and sutures heal faster, burns heal sooner, and premature infants have enhanced growth rate (see www.healingtouchinternational.org for information about research on the effectiveness of Healing Touch). There are teams of medical doctors and nurses combining medical skills with hands-on and energy techniques in most major cities in the United States.
