Your hands are not only useful, but they are potentially incredibly sensitive. Do you have the touch? What can you feel with your hands? Did you know you can sense a shift in warmth of .03 degrees?
Oh yes, I do love a man with ‘man hands’ who can in a moment open the tight jar or close the stuck drawer. Strength is not my forte, sensitivity is and some people say I have magic fingers.
Why Human Touch Is Essential for Health and Well-Being
Touch is so important literally for healthy development in children and so nurturing for you as an adult. Touch is a keystone to your humanness. What is in a touch? In part, it has to do with your intention and presence. Are you lovingly touching your baby or child…or your husband or lover….so many things factor into a touch.
What Makes a Healing Touch Different from Everyday Touch
A therapeutic or healing touch is not so much about love but compassion and presence. It is supportive of your healing process. This type of touch is non judgmental, it is without expectations from you, the client. Of course, a session is intended to be helpful and alleviate discomfort.
What a Practitioner Can Sense Through Therapeutic Touch
What do I feel under my hands? I experience the person’s body, and I tune in through my hands to physical, subtle physical and energetic systems, listening with my hands to the responses of the person with whom I am working.
What do I feel under my hands? I experience the person’s body, and I tune in through my hands to physical, subtle physical and energetic systems; listening with my hands to the responses of the person with whom I am working. This kind of attunement is rooted in somatic perception and body awareness—the developed capacity to receive and interpret the body’s subtle signals.
I check the craniosacral rhythm reflected throughout the body. This rhythm reflects your overall health and is known as both primary respiration and the wisdom of the body. This rhythm is also central to understanding craniosacral rhythm and headache relief.
My hands sense the energy of the chakras. I quickly check the chakras from off the body as they reflect physical and emotional imbalances. And then I use Vibrational Acupuncture, no needles, to rebalance organs or rebalance the small chakras of the body called nadii.
Structural imbalances lead to micro-movement adjustment and unwinding of the tissue. Depending on the severity of the problem, I can tune in deeper and deeper into the structures such as the brain and spinal cord or the very DNA and cellular makeup. One entry point into this deeper listening is sensing CranioSacral rhythm through the cranial base, where subtle motion reveals the health of the entire central nervous system.
Yes, there is a lifetime of study and research reflected in my touch. And this tuning in with my hands is a kind of seeing with or through my hands. It is a process which is not limited to the person/client being present physically…it can be done from a distance.
