Non-Touch Energy Healing with the Hands | Treatment Modalities

In this post, we’ll give you an overview of the best known non-touch Energy Healing systems and treatments that typically use hand palm energy transmission techniques. The term Energy Healing carries various synonyms, such as Energy Medicine, Bioenergy Healing, Bioenergy Medicine, and Biofield Therapy, among others.

Energy Healing is often associated with non-touch or near-touch hand-palm healing therapies, such as Reiki, but in fact, many traditional Asian massage modalities are also considered Energy Healing. Think of treatments like Thai Massage, Tuina Massage, and Shiatsu Massage, which all work with and manipulate Vital Life Energy, may it be called Lom Pran, Qi, or Ki.

The main difference between full-touch and non-touch Energy Healing is that the therapist either uses physical contact with the receiver to influence their internal Biofield, or — by contrast — gives therapy without direct physical contact but working directly with the Biofield energy layer that surrounds the receiver.

Below then — in alphabetical order — some of the best known non-touch Energy Healing treatment modalities. Follow the links within the paragraphs for more details about a modality.

Magnetism and Magnetic Therapy

Magnetism or Magnetic Therapy is about using the weak static magnetic fields or weak electric fields created by permanent magnets to achieve healing benefits through manipulating our Life Force Energy.
