Therapeutic Touch or TT as it is also referred, was developed by Dolores Krieger, Ph.D., RN, then a Professor at New York University, and Dora Van Gelder Kunz, a natural healer.  It is an intentionally directed process of energy exchange during which the practitioner uses the hands as a focus to facilitate the healing process.

Therapeutic Touch is a scientifically based practice founded on the premise that the human body, mind, emotions and intuition form a complex, dynamic energy field.  In disease, the energy is characterized by imbalance and disorder.  The human being exists as a unique individual operating within a sea of consciousness influenced by everything in the environment.

Life is directly influenced by the quality of the environment in which we live.    Light, air, oxygen, soil, plants, animals, minerals and other persons influence the individual either enhancing health or creating possibilities for minor and major disturbances either individually or globally.  Through Therapeutic Touch, a rebalancing of the disorder of energy is accomplished.

The experts at NIH (National Institute of Health) found that Therapeutic Touch has one of the strongest research bases of any of the alternative/complimentary modalities.  There are dozens of papers written on Therapeutic Touch, and many postdoctoral studies, several of which have been funded by NIH.  Research continues at a rigorous pace in institutions of higher learning throughout the country.
