When touch is used as a therapeutic measure, the therapists place their hands on the patient\u2019s body and focus on the energy centers. They aim at interacting with the energies of the patient and regaining the lost balance. This helps to fight against diseases, improve the immune system and achieve a state of health.<\/p>\n

It is performed by a trained and certified therapist or a nurse in addition to the prescribed treatment. It can be performed in hospital patients especially when preparing them for major procedures or helping them to recover from illnesses. While the therapeutic touch is very useful and does not pose any threat, it is better to report any restlessness or undesirable feelings experienced during the treatment course.<\/p>
