Heart Light Healing Touch

My remarkable encounter with Healing Touch came as a result of a T-bone-type accident with a van, which totaled my new car.  I had but one broken bone, a rib, but plenty of soft-tissue trauma, sprained hand and ankle, and a belt burn across my throat.  I was lucky that my Healing Touch therapist could administer a treatment within 8 hours of the accident.   After the treatment, I slept 12 hours straight without interruption, not requiring pain meds or nebulizer treatment for my COPD.  After the initial treatment, I was able to manage muscle trauma with heat and cold therapy, and several additional Healing Touch sessions.  There is an aspect of the sense of well-being after HT.  The sense that "All is as it should be”, sense of "Being cared for", "All is well."  I believe Healing Touch to be a shining new instrument in the medical tool kit.

The past year of my life has taken me down a life changing path. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had 4 surgeries in 8 months. Planning for my bi-lateral mastectomy and reconstruction in October 2012, I had a friend who was certified in healing touch ask me if I would be open to having it performed on me after my surgery. I was both touched and thrilled with her offer. For the next 9 weeks after leaving the hospital Holli Brown and I met once a week for Healing Touch sessions. I believe an individual has to be open to the experience in order to reap the maximum benefits from such an alternate form of treatment but believe that everyone’s lives can be impacted and benefit from the power of healing touch. During some of our sessions I was amazed by the heat and energy I felt radiating on my body. The ultimate testimonial however is how well I did in the weeks following surgery and how surprisingly good I felt. I think even my physician was surprised at how well I was doing. For surgery number 4 in December 2012 Holli accompanied me in both pre-op and post-op recovery focusing primarily on recovering from the anesthesia in post-op. Once awake I felt good and alert with no lingering effects of the anesthesia. This surgery was just before Christmas and we didn’t schedule any follow-up healing touch sessions and I really regret not having done so. My recovery and healing was much slower than expected and I found I had no energy or motivation to do much of anything unlike my recovery in October. I believe that the healing touch sessions Holli performed on me made a significant difference in my recovery both physically and mentally. With heartfelt thanks.

My experience with Holli and healing touch were great. I had a very hard year and the treatments of healing touch really helped me to keep balanced and make it through. I enjoyed each session very much and looked forward to the next.

Holli did wonderful distance Healing Touch work on me while I was undergoing cancer treatments. I found her to be compassionate, intuitive and a good listener. I believe my sessions with Holli helped reduce my nausea caused by chemotherapy. Holli’s work also gave me relief from muscle and join pain, a side-effect from medication I’m taking. My distance sessions with Holli left me feeling grounded, well cared for and they brought on a deep sense of peace and well-being.

I have received Holli’s wonderful massages for many years, and my body, mind & Spirit really appreciates them. When she added “healing touch”, the massages felt so much more relaxing, going deeper in to other levels of awareness. Now, I combine them, and find them totally healing.
