In 1990 Dr.Daniel P. Wirth conducted a study of noncontact Therapeutic Touch's impact on wound healing that demonstarted clearly statistically significant effects of this non-conventional means.While 13 of the 23 "treatment" group subject were completely healed on day 16; none of the "nontreatment" group subjects were completely healed on this day. Many more studies on Healing Touch were done that also confirmed its effectiveness. For the results of these studies one can confront Daniel J. Benor's HEALING RESEARCH. More anecdotal way of showing Healing Touch in its variety of modalities as a potent therapeutic modality was chosen by Leonard Dobrzanski in his THE WORLD OF HEALERS.
