The Theory and Practice of Therapeutic Touch

By Jean Sayre-Adams and Stephen G. Wright

Therapeutic touch (based on the ancient arts of healing and laying on of hands) is now the most widely used complementary therapy in the USA. Because of this, over the last 15 years extensive research and trials on its effectiveness have been carried out. As interest in complementary therapies among convential health care practitioners in the UK continues to grow, nurses are increasingly keen to add therapeutic touch to the complementary medical skills they employ in practice.
