Although often associated with religious practices, such as Laying on of Hands in Christianity, or in some Native American religions, it’s likewise a practice used in many different alternative and traditional medicine systems without necessarily having a religious or spiritual connotation.
Today, it’s generally thought that the Laying on of Hands practice in fact manipulates our so-called Biofield, which, depending on the definition or style of healing, may consist of etheric, pranic, magnetic, or electromagnetic fields or energies, among others.
Some examples of contemporary Laying on of Hands therapies include Reiki, Healing Touch (HT), and Therapeutic Touch® (TT).
