Healing Touch
provides care and comfort to an individual through balancing the Energy System, thereby
helping the client to self heal.
It
is based on a heart-centered caring relationship in which the healer and client come
together energetically to facilitate the client's health and healing. This is done through
an analysis of the energetic system of the client.
The Healing Touch Practitioner operates
from an International Code of Ethics within International Standards of Practice as
outlined by Healing Touch International, Inc.
The person is not discriminated against
because of race, sex, creed, religious beliefs, illness, social/cultural situation or
sexual orientation. The client's humanness is to be respected at all times as the person
is considered whole and holy.
He/she is part of a unit such as a family
or support network system. This unit is to be considered in understanding the
health/healing need of the person. The individual rights are upheld at all times and the
person's coping method is to be respected. The amount and timing of the explanation given
to the client is individualized according to the expressed need, context and personal
situation. The client's wishes are to be considered, using the language that the person
can understand while not talking above or below the person.
The client's choices regarding health care
are to be honored. Interventions are based on energetic findings from a prior assessment
of the Energy System followed by evaluation.
