Therapeutic Touch  The therapist  Places hands on or near the patient's body  Consciously directs the patient’s energies  Focuses on balancing the energies and stimulating the body's own natural healing  (The University of Minnesota, 2012)

Based on the assumptions that  Human beings are open energy systems  Illness is an imbalance in the energy field  Clearing or balancing the energy field promotes health  All humans have the natural abilities to heal  (The University of Minnesota, 2012)

 Taught in many nursing schools,  Categorized as a biofield energy therapy by NCCAM  Is not a substitute for medical treatment  It does complement conventional medical care  Is beneficial with other therapies  (The University of Minnesota, 2012)

Healing Touch  A Healing Touch session  Practitioner goes through a centering process  Practitioner becomes fully present with the patient  Practitioner focuses intention on patient's “highest good”  (The University of Minnesota, 2012)

Techniques  A gentle but firm physical touch  Placing of hands in the energy field surrounding the body  Continual reassessment of the client’s physical indicators  (Wilkinson, Knox, Chatman, et al, 2002)

 Complements other healing techniques  Conventional medical practices  Other Mind/Body oriented therapies  Not intended as a cure  (The University of Minnesota, 2012)

Reiki

The Five Precepts  Just for today, do not anger  Just for today, do not worry  Be humble  Be honest in your work  Be compassionate to yourself and others  (Arnold and Nevius,1982 & Miles and True, 2003)

Reiki  Extremely Passive Medicine  Hands gently on patient or just above the body  No attempt to adjust or reorganize energy field  No attempt to project energy into the body  Does not require an assessment of patient energies  (Micozzi, 2011)

Reiki Induced States of Awareness  Novel and paradoxical sensations  Disorientation in space and time  Altered experience of self, environment, and relationships  (Micozzi, 2011) Changes in Physical Measurements  Lowered stress and anxiety  Skin temperature lowered  Electromyographic readings lowered  Salivary cortisol level lowered  (Micozzi, 2011)
