Quantum Touch (The Power to Heal) by Richard Gordon, North Atlantic
Books 209 pgs, softcover, $18.95
Quantum Touch represents a major breakthrough in the field of hands-on
healing arts. This book presents a method of bodywork that may be utilized
by anyone who has learned the technique, from complete novice to experienced
professional healer.
Quantum-Touch utilizes special breathing and body focusing techniques
that raise the healer's energy level to a point that healing can occur with
a light touch of the healer's hands. Postural corrections, reduction of pain
and inflammation, and even emotional releases can happen when the techniques
are properly applied.
Although Quantum-Touch is clearly similar in some ways to the arts of
Reiki and Therapeutic Touch, it is a separate art form, and one that requires
no formal training or classes. The only requirements to learn and use
Quantum-Touch include discipline, concentration, and willingness to practice
energy-raising exercises and breathing techniques.
The book is divided into five sections: GETTING READY, which provides
background and principles; TECHNIQUES, which covers energy exercises, answers
to frequently-asked questions, and intermediate and advanced techniques;
APPLICATIONS, which explains how to work on specific areas of the body, self
healing, distant healing and animal healing; OTHER ESSENTIALS, which delves
into Emotional Healing, nutrition and lifestyle healing, and miscellaneous
"fun stuff;" and VISION, which presents the author's view of the future of
energy healing/energy medicine.
This book is a great read, and allows any person, for the mere price of
a book, to enter the fascinating and rewarding world of energy medicine.
Quantum Touch is a must-read for anyone already trained in other energy
disciplines; it complements, rather than competes with, related fields.
