Five Healing Touch practitioners provided individual sessions to 64 students. Students were invited to take a quiet break from the busy school day and experience a gentle, non-invasive approach designed to support relaxation and well-being.
Healing Touch is an evidence based complementary wellness practice using light touch or working just above the body. Research on biofield therapy shows benefits including reduced anxiety, pain and stress and increased relaxation and well-being.
“We were delighted to give students a chance to pause, relax and experience another dimension of wellness,” said Kathleen Bacchi, RN, CHTP, of the Healing Touch Team.
The Healing Touch Team provides biofield therapy programs in schools, healthcare settings and community organizations, with the goal of making complementary wellness practices accessible to the community.
