Healing Touch Kinetic Touch

Touch is the first sense we experience in the womb and may also be the last we experience before death. To understand the consequences of losing the sense of touch we must first understand its benefits. Touch is an important element of how we understand and relate to our world. Touch can convey personal feeling towards one another or it can convey danger such as heat or sharp surfaces. The inability to feel sensations on the ski impacts many different situations and can potentially have dangerous repercussions. Our ability to survive is not generally dependent on our sense of smell or our sense of taste. However, if one does not possess the sense of touch, it can directly imperil our very existence.

Healing and health services are defined and acted upon in many different ways in the world today. Although in the United States we predominately focus on biomedicine or conventional health care practice, it is only one of many different types of healing. Thru time we have progressed between several different eras of healing. The first era being in the 1860’s which predominately looked at biomedicine type therapy. The second era taking shape in the 1950’s and

Heidt (1981) found TT of benefit to cardiovascular patient. Heidt studied therapeutic touch (TT) using 30 patients as the subjects in three groups. Group A received TT, group B casual TT and group C none. Results showed a significant reduction in anxiety in group

(Box 35-2, page 760) While different parts of the book described different aspects of touch as therapy, the general statement is that touch is beneficial to everyone. This book is written by Canadian doctors and nurses and has had all of its facts checked and approved before publication so I feel that as a resource I can count on this book to be a reliable source of information. As it is a textbook for nursing students, the intended audience is primarily those studying nursing. With that in mind, many people would not have access to this resource for general inquires.

Therapeutic Touch is a scientifically based healing method in which the human energy field is re-patterned in order to promote health and healing. Developed in 1972 by Prof. Dolores Kreiger, PHD, RN, and natural healer Dora Kunz, Therapeutic Touch is now practiced in over 90 countries. Treatments last up to 30 minutes and have been shown to lower anxiety, reduce pain, stabilize blood pressure, support the healing process and induce relaxation among many other benefits.

For my field study, I visited the alternative health practice, Rivers of Health, a place that is meant to assist one in reaching their wellness potential. Located in Roseburg Oegon, Rivers of Health primarily utilized a form of therapy known as manual therapy. However this is a manual therapy center that is unique from other similar organizations that focus on body manipulation. This is due to it specializing in a classification of manual therapy called Lowens System Dynamic Manual Interface, or as it is more commonly referred to as DMI. The owner and sole care provider of Rivers of Health is Peggy Thompson-Rhodes, who has had much experience in her field. Peggy has been a liscensed massage therapist for more that two decades, with her training being from the Oregon School of Massage. She is a relaxed and methodical individual who portrays a sense of confidence in her work.

Next, I learned that in this movie Kathrine use the therapeutic touch to make Adam feel better but in this case at the beginning especially Adam does not feel comfortable whenever she touches him. Adam had already voice out to her that he does not feel comfortable and feel like a slapped by a sea otter but Kathrine keeps continuing that touch as her personal boundaries clip 30.41minutes (Wolz, 2011). I learn that I must inform my client at the beginning session in the concern form that foes the client mind if I have therapeutic touch with them. If my client is okay with it, I will proceed with it but if they are not okay I will not do it and if I accidently did it I will ask for

These diagnoses covered all known systems of the body, Pancreatitis, brain tumour, emphysemea, multiple endocrine disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, and congestive heart disease were but a few. There was nothing in either my previous education or experience by which I could rationalise the results. I went back to my behavioural profiles and interactional sketches and re-examined them. After considerable analysis, I realised that the only thing that importantly intervened between Estebany (massage therapist), and the healees ,was touch by the laying on of hands, and I decided to do postdoctoral research on this healing process.

Following a patients evaluation and assessment, our first order of business was to educate the patient on how they could help their healing process: stop smoking, self massage, dietary supplements this directly coincided with: fabricating orthotics, utilizing modalities, teaching exercise regimens and wound care. The holistic approach was designed and customized individually to promote a patients maximal degree of function. Every appointment ended with personal interaction and the healing touch of a hand massage. The outcomes that came out of the hand clinic were remarkable, I feel extremely blessed to have learned from this outstanding

It is incredible how correct the placement of these mental/emotional chakras are with physical areas in the body responsible for the actual production of hormones and organs responsible for these emotional reactions, for example, the Ajna chakra, is known as the third eye chakra and is linked to the pineal gland which is a light sensitive gland that produces the hormone melatonin which regulates sleep and waking up, and is also the production site of the psychedelic hormone dimethyltryptamine, the only known hallucinogen created in the human body, which makes sense why this chakra is the chakra responsible for intuition, envisioning, and trusting inner guidance. One school of thought on chakras is, “Every thought and experience you've ever had in your life gets filtered through these chakra databases. Each event is recorded into your cells…”, quoted from Caroline Myss, a medical intuitive and author, in her book Anatomy of the Spirit. Mediative medicine has proven successful in many ways. The benefits of mediative yoga and breathing on the body, are seen a multitude of physical ways. We know that if persons mental state is imbalanced that it can take a huge physical toll out on that person. Western society has accepted beliefs similar to chakra beliefs in the past: Chinese acupuncture, therapeutic touch, etc. All of which are based in the same

What you really need to know is that chakras are like locks. The main 7 are located down the spine from the tailbone to the head. Whether you call it chi or energy, chakras are the “locks” to your energy force. You can also think of them as “the center for thought currents.” There are several ways for you to tune your chakras. You can use sound, yoga, foods, color therapy, herbs and oils, crystals and so much more to align your chakras. Your first 5 chakras are related to your 5 senses.

It is obvious that the different parts of the body have different tactile sensation, which is similar to my hypothesis, and the most sensitive part is the ear, and the least sensitive part is the finger. This experiment is very successful, it can be seen that the method and process are reasonable, so it can be recommended. In the end, the pain is more than just what happened to the skin tactile sensor. It has a lot to do with what happens in the brain, for example, a tiny piece of debris in a finger is extremely painful, and cutting your leg may not hurt the same. So applications are used in hospitals, doctors can determine the severity of the injury to the patient's pain. And some diseases can be found due to the different parts of the

Reflexology, also known as Zone Therapy, is a type of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). It is purported to treat ailments by stimulating regions of the hands, ears and feet that are believed to correspond to other parts of the body in need of healing (Butler, 2012). Foot Reflexology in particular has ancient roots, and while there are virtually no scientific studies that support its legitimacy as a cure for illness, there is much anecdotal support for its ability to relieve stress and bring pain relief to its patients. Because a person’s state of health involves not only physical, but also social and mental well-being (World, 2017), the perception that Foot Reflexology is beneficial to healing is a factor that should not be overlooked.
