Healing Touch as a Nursing Intervention

Wound Infection Following Cesarean Birth—An Anecdotal Case Study

Wendy S. Wetzel, R.N., M.S.N., F.N.P.

Fairfield, California

From the context of postoperative wound infection care, this article describes the clinical use of Healing Touch, an integrated system of energetic healing techniques now being taught nationwide in cooperation with the American Holistic Nurses' Association. The author documents the progress of a patient with a significant wound infection as a consequence of cesarean birth. Along with standard medical care, the patient received Healing Touch treatments. This is an anecdotal report and is not intended to replace a structured study on wound healing.
