HEALING TOUCH is a relaxing, nurturing energy therapy. Gentle touch assists in balancing your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Healing Touch works with your energy field to support your natural ability to heal. It is safe for all ages and works in harmony with standard medical care. Healing Touch is used in a wide variety of settings including hospitals, long term care facilities, private practices, hospices, and spas. Janet Mentgen, RN, founded Healing Touch in 1989 as a continuing education program for nurses, other health care professionals, and lay persons. Today Healing Touch has spread internationally and is taught in universities, medical and nursing schools, and other settings internationally. This energetic practice can be used anywhere, anytime, with almost anybody. There is no special preparation required. A quiet, calm environment promotes rest. Clients may sit or lay down (fully clothed) to receive a treatment which involves gentle hand contact, both on and off the surface of the body.

Healing Touch research suggests that there are many benefits. Individual experiences will vary.

SRT - SPIRITUAL RESPONSE THERAPY is a system of researching the subconscious mind and soul records to quickly find and release the discordant, limiting ideas and replace them with loving, supportive ideas and beliefs. SRT provides an exacting, powerful, virtually painless and accurate way of changing the landscape of our inner and outer lives, enabling us to live our lives more freely. This "research," which is accomplished with the help of higher guidance (your "Higher Self"), includes finding past life energies, subconscious blocks, and negative soul programming. Once identified, these blocks and negative energies can be cleared from the subconscious, soul (Akashic) records, allowing you to heal yourself on all levels. SRT was developed by Robert E. Detzler, and has been used by thousands of students since 1988. With Spiritual Response Therapy, you use your muscle responses to bypass your conscious mind and negative programming to connect with subconscious and your guidance within. A pendulum is used as a movement amplifier and pointer as you communicate with your Higher Self using a special set of charts. You can replace old programs with positive energy and inner peace. The result of this work has assisted thousands of people to live clearer, more joyful lives.

MASSAGE THERAPY doesn't just feel good. Research shows that it reduces the heart rate, lowers blood pressure, increases blood circulation and lymph flow, relaxes muscles, improves range of motion, and increases endorphins – the body's natural painkillers.

Therapeutic massage enhances medical treatment and helps people feel less anxious and stressed, relaxed yet more alert.

Massage Therapy at HMHC is a wonderful way to augment your self-care program.

Our licensed practitioners are trained in many aspects of massage, including Cranio-Sacral, Deep Tissue, Reflexology, Shiatsu, and many others. They offer many types of massage to meet your every need.

REIKI (ray-key) Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by gentle touch and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Reiki can also be administered from a distance when requested. Many have reported miraculous results.

ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD BALANCING; EMF. A session is an experience of one's own electromagnetic energy field (EMF) and the patterns within it. Each session lasts about an hour. The recipient is on a massage table while the practitioner carries out a series of graceful Tai chi-like movements. Most of the movements involve the passing of the practitioner's hands through the portions of the Universal Calibration Lattice of the client that completely surround the body to a distance of 2 feet all around. During some parts of the session the practitioner will gently place their hands on the body to facilitate the flow of energy. Each session results in a strengthening of the UCL, allowing it to permanently carry a greater electrical charge. While the procedure for each session is the same every time, the calibration (or strengthening) is unique to each person receiving the session. The calibration is determined by their inner wisdom, an expression of their personal electromagnetic configuration.

CRYSTAL THERAPY uses crystals as tools for healing. The human body is a series of energy systems. Crystals are devices for adjusting and balancing these systems. Quartz crystals are used along with the Wheel of Life pendant to create powerful healing results. Many Native American Indian tribes, including the Cherokee, have used these tools for centuries.

FLOWER REMEDIES uses a system of healing designed to treat the person, not the ailment. The remedies address emotional imbalances that may block a positive state of mind. A positive mind promotes a healthy body. Barbara often combines the use of these "essences" when giving a Healing Touch session. They help restore balance and harmony within the subject.

SOUND HEALING OR TONING is one of the oldest forms of healing. It is used to restore the body's harmony and balance through the use of vocalizations allowing a healthy resonant frequency. No musical or voice experience is necessary as each voice is unique and carries its own healing qualities, from the sea lion's bark to the dolphin's shrill cry, and can be expressed solely or from within a group setting. Drums, bells, cymbals and other simple percussion instruments may also be used. A healthy body is harmonically balanced so that every organ, bone, tissue and other parts have an optimum resonant frequency producing a perfectly tuned being. The use of sound as a healing tool dates back thousands of years. Now, the field of sound healing is gaining considerable attention, as sound pioneers promote the healing benefits of music, tones and instruments.

SHAMANIC HEALING & JOURNEYING; Shamanism is the spiritual practice that our ancestors used to learn about their surroundings, to communicate with the spirits, and to heal themselves. We are descended from shamanic cultures and because of this, we still have that link to our environment: the truth of our interconnectedness has never changed ... we simply fell asleep and lost touch. A contemporary Shamanic Practitioner and Healer blends ancient and contemporary wisdom. Using the techniques our ancestors used, the practitioner can contact the Spiritual beings of our environment, and, with the help, guidance and teachings of Spirit Teachers, enable a person to find their path to well being and wholeness. Journeying is a classic technique and is practiced in one form or another by Shamans all over the world. Journeying enables you to send your Dream Body or Spirit into the Spirit World and is a powerful way of meeting with Power Animals, Spirit Teachers, finding answers to problems or to discover information and wisdom that can facilitate your personal growth and understanding. Soul Retrieval is another aspect of Shamanistic practice allowing an individual to recapture pieces of their selves lost during traumatic episodes.
