Therapeutic Touch Info
Christian Therapeutic Touch
is a means of using compassionate touch for healing a
person. The REAL power comes from Jesus Christ. Here,
you are part of the circuit. Touch itself can have a very
powerful effect on a person.
Please be aware that Christian therapeutic
touch should not be used in place of other medicines, but to
AUGMENT it--UNLESS divine healing takes place. Basically,
you just lay your hands over a particular area of the body ideally
for about 3-5 minutes at a time, and then change to another
location. It is also often beneficial to place each hand on
opposite sides of a part. Also, the fingers should be
together in order to reduce excessive staggering of the
energy. Here are some good hand positions to use:
- One hand over each
ear (Be careful with squealing due to hearing aids)
-
One
hand over the forehead and the other on the back of the head
- Both hands
on
front of the upper chest, just below the neck
-
One
hand on front of the mid chest and the other on the back in
about the
same
vertical
position
as the hand over the chest. In the case of female
recipients
or patients, the hand
that
is normally placed over the mid chest should be place over the
top
part of the breasts.
When
dealing with women, DO NOT make any remarks or such about the
breasts,
and
be
SURE to treat them with diginity, for this is a sensitive part
of
her
body. Also, a person
that
has been sexually abused may be very uncomfortable with touch,
particularly
in the
chest
area.

One
hand in front of the upper or lower leg, and the other hand
behind (no

While there are other hand positions, the
first four are probably the most beneficial unless he or she has
limb problems.
Luckily, no person can "overdose" on Christian
therapeutic touch. The body acts a lot like a capacitor;
Once full "charge" is reached, no more energy transfer will
occur. If you have the desire to lay your hands on a certain
area, please feel free to do so.
Like other medicines, there can be side
effects, but none of these are fatal. Especially when
working on the chest area, some people may unexpectedly break down
and start crying. This is caused by accumulated tension and
"horse crap" being let or purged out. Just have tissues
handy for the person and be sympathetic toward him or her.
Also bizarre problems may pop up if the person has suffered very
long periods of no touch (like around a year or more).
If you feel some bad "energy" radiating from a
person, just cross your fingers (like your ring and index finger)
and/or your legs, but do this inconspicuously. This will
allow you to continue treating the person without worrying about
"bad energy" going into you. You may feel the urge to pray
that bad stuff doesn't go from that person into you.
However, pray about this ahead of time or silently, so that the
person doesn't feel bad about this.
Like other Christian aspects of life, Satan
just can't seem to keep his nose out of things. Contrary to
what Satan may have you to believe, Christian therapeutic Touch is
NOT to be used for controlling or manipulating others.
Catholics may pray for something in the name of the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Spirit; This is fine. If bad energy
becomes a concern, by all means pray about this.
