Way over my head & a
little bit out there would best explain one therapy approach we have chosen to
use with Andy even before birth. Touch Energy
(a version of Reiki) uses the approach that our body is constantly building new
cells to repair damaged ones (similarly to how a cut on our hand heals itself). Through the skilled hands (actually, no
touch is even used) of his therapist, Andy receives routine treatments to
encourage nerve development in his lower extremities, bladder & bowel
nourishment, and routine health monitoring.
Amazingly, she ends diarrhea & constipation after a simple phone
call.
While many may view this all natural, new approach as “out
there”, I simply view it as if it helps Andy, I’m all about it! Touch Energy / Light Energy often cause me
to question scientific generalizations and what is “right” for my child. In fact, many of the negative comments we
received such as Andy having a club foot, being unable to move his legs,
needing a shunt, etc, have been proven false.
Touch Energy has demanded me to put my faith in the unknown and in
something I don’t totally understand.
Andy’s body is viewed as an ever-changing blueprint; through Touch
Energy, our Faith in God, and the scientific world, we have a “whole” new view
of life.
