ONE LIGHT HEALING TOUCH THERAPY

Hands-On Healing is an ancient art form that has been used worldwide for thousands of years. Today, there is a resurgence of interest in Hands-on Healing, along with the entire field of complementary care. The One Light Healing Touch International Energy Healing and Mystery School (OLHT), founded in 1996, gets exceptional marks in the quality, depth and breadth of its comprehensive educational training and its adherence to the standards of caring, inherent in this ancient traditional healing art, making it a leader in the field.

ONE LIGHT HEALING TOUCH Therapy is a safe, non-invasive, non-manipulative, and therapeutic intervention built on the philosophy of caring for the whole person - body, mind and spirit. It can be used extensively in nursing, massage, therapy and other healing professions to induce changes in the human energy system affecting physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health and well being. Sessions are performed with the patient’s consent while they are lying down and fully clothed. During a session the practitioner may chose to touch a patient, but always with a patient’s permission. Sessions may take place in any comfortable setting or at a Distance. Treatments involve the healer doing an assessment of the patient’s blocked energies, due to patterning, trauma, pain or disease and then selecting one or a set of several of the over 55 healing techniques available to the healer, while opening to the Spiritual or Universal Energetic Flow. The healer can then channel or otherwise utilize this restorative and loving energy while radiating it through their hands, heart and eyes, and into a patient’s body. The healer may also choose to guide a patient through an individual or series of auditory healing processes. This energetic work realigns, rebalances and begins clearing a patient’s energy system. Often patients open to their realigned energy systems, feeling relaxed, as they allow the body to naturally release their energy blockages, traumas and/or pains. In sessions, many patients report sensations of heat, pins and needles, waves of warmth or a sense of flowing peace and tranquility. Patients are given holistic healing tools to use, as needed, to facilitate their healing between sessions, thus empowering them to be actively involved in their own healing process. OLHT therapy complements all medical and holistic practices. It is especially effective for all types of chronic conditions, since it stimulates and strengthens the immune system and shortens the patient’s recovery time, while dramatically decreasing levels of pain, and increasing a sense of well being. Sessions can be tailored to varying situations, but generally run 60 minutes.

THERAPY AND CAM

Natural Health Magazine, has identified approximately 30 healing practices as CAM, “Complementary and Alternative,” from acupuncture, to homeopathy. It is especially noteworthy that the OLHT Program offers in-depth training in seven of the recognized CAM practices:

  Long Distance Healing 
  Energy Healing
  Guided Imagery
  Healing Movement      
  Meditation          
  Mind-body Healing
  Non-religious Spirituality

In addition to these listed practices, Lavin teaches a total of 50 self-healing practices and 33 techniques for healing others.

Increasingly, hospitals in search of a competitive edge are offering their patients and local residents some form of alternative medicine. According the American Hospital Association, the number of hospitals offering complementary and alternative therapies doubled from 8% in 1998 to 16.7% in 2002.

Today, the number is far greater. According to Dr. Andrew Weil, these alternative or complementary medical centers, known as Integrative Medicine Clinics, are changing the face of healthcare. He states, “these hospital-sponsored clinics offer patients and local residents the best of conventional and alternative medicine in order to maximize the body’s innate potential for self-healing.” Self Healing, January, 2004.

CAM therapies are prescribed for all levels of patients, including those with serious illnesses. Americans now spend over $34 billion out-of pocket annually on complementary medicine, and many hospitals are recognizing that incorporating alternative therapies will benefit their hospital’s bottom lines. As many as 43% of Americans say they have used some form of alternative therapy. 85% of cancer patients use a variety of CAM therapies in addition to mainstream medical treatments. CAM courses are now taught in 75 of the 125 accredited U.S. medical schools. The WHO reports that between 65-80% of the world’s population relies on at least one form of alternative therapy as their main form of health care. Insurance companies have begun to cover CAM and lifestyle modification programs because they see the cost-savings benefit. Hospitals and their Integrative Medicine Clinics providing both traditional medicine and alternative, complementary practices are fast becoming the public’s favorite hospitals.
