Author of “Your Healing Hands: The Polarity Experience” and “Quantum Touch”

While hands-on healing is probably easiest of skills to learn, it is also one of most misunderstood of subjects. In this article, I thought to cover some of basic elements of hands-on healing and one of my attempts to validate its effectiveness. If we were to believe movies, healers are special people who may have been touched by an angel, born with a mysterious gift, may have had a near death experience, their hands usually glow in dark, they cause light bulbs to explode, black stuff flies out mouth, and they seem to always become drained from doing work. Well folks, what did you expect from Hollywood? Fortunately, NONE of above is true. My favorite definition of a “healer” is someone who was sick and got well, and a great healer is someone who was very sick and got well quickly. In truth, you really cannot heal anybody other than yourself. The cells must always heal themselves, and you can’t force that to happen. You can no more heal another person than you can digest lunch that they just ate. Anybody who thinks that they are healing another person is mistaken, egotistical, or delusional. So what does happen, and why does hands-on healing work? Healing is all about resonance and entrainment. Everything vibrates, and when two things vibrate at different frequencies, there is a tendency for vibrations to come together. Most often, slower vibration will rise to match faster frequency. There are many kinds of examples of entrainment; over time, similarly tuned electric oscillators will match frequencies, disembodied animal hearts when placed near each other and kept alive in a lab will all beat in unison, and when women share a dormitory, over months they will often start menstruating at same time. When two things are in proximity and vibrating at different frequencies, there are three possible outcomes: Either higher frequency will match lower one, lower one will match higher one, or they will meet in middle. Practitioners of hands-on healing ideally learn to hold a high vibration in their hands, and then through biological entrainment, differing frequencies will match up. With effective techniques, a practitioner can learn to hold an extraordinarily high vibration, influencing and person in need of healing to match vibration of practitioner. When done correctly, practitioner NEVER becomes drained form doing work. Most often practitioner feels emotionally uplifted as a result of doing work.
