Touch Therapy



I always feel secure and safe when I am close to my mother. I am sure the feeling is universal and is experienced by everyone. But I also had similar feeling in school days when one of my favorite teachers walked past me during exams. I always wished her to be in the class during exams as I used to be very scared. It is not the person but the vibes or energy that you receive from them that makes you feel in a certain way.

This energy is used for the treatment of people from several years. The power of positive thinking is used to design a new kind of therapy known a ‘Touch Therapy’. Though it is not a new concept, but is based on ancient healing customs which believes that everyone has a healing hand and power to bestow wellbeing.

Now this is been taken to a new level and exclusive touch therapy centers are being opened. Studies have shown that even heart surgery patients recover faster when they undergo touch therapy before and after the surgery. Not only this, Touch Therapy has been effective in reducing stress, reducing pain, depression, strengthening immune system and also in case of cancer care patients.

This treatment is been preferred by people who have undergone serious medical procedure or are suffering with multiple diseases. Since the medication in such case is high already, they do not want to add more medicine in their diet. So as a better alternative, touch therapy not only helps in reducing the suffering but also increases ones natural ability to self-heal.

One of the interesting researches has shown that women who often hug their partners have lower blood pressure compared to those who do not do so. The conclusion therefore is that we all have healing touch; it just depends on how positive we are in our approach.
