Healing is a Natural Energy therapy that may be used as a complement to conventional medical or veterinary treatment. A healer acts as a channel for healing energy, directing it towards the body of the patient, which will then absorb it where it is most needed. The medical and veterinary professions are increasingly recognising the efficacy of Healing, and it is important that if a person or an animal is receiving healing that their doctor or veterinary surgeon is informed.

Information about research trials to assess the efficacy of healing and also anecdotal accounts of the positive effects of healing can be found at the Website of The International Healing Fellowship www.tihf.org.uk

Healers cannot promise a cure; they are forbidden by their Code of Conduct to do so. However, research studies and anecdotal accounts have shown that healing can be beneficial in cases of chronic pain, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, ME, injuries, recovery from illness or surgery, stress, depression, insomnia and bereavement. Healing can help to alleviate the pain and discomfort of the terminally ill, fostering a sense of peace and tranquillity and helping to dispel the fear of death.
