Future Directions for Therapeutic Touch Research

Janet F. Quinn, Ph.D., RN

Center for Human Caring at the University of Colorado School of Nursing

This article builds on one published in the Journal of Holistic Nursing (1988) which reviewed all research on Therapeutic Touch completed to that time. The author, considering research completed since then, identifies, discusses and prioritizes three related directions for future Therapeutic Touch research : outcome studies, theory development studies and replications studies. The article then looks at methodological issues which should be considered by anyone planning Therapeutic Touch studies: treatment personnel, length of treatment and research design.
