Energy healing is based on the belief that a healer is able to channel healing energy into the person seeking help by different methods: hands-on, hands-off, and distant (or absent) where the patient and healer are in different locations. The Brockhampton Guide to Spiritual Healing describes contact healing in terms of “transfer of … healing energy” and distant healing based on visualising the patient in perfect health. Practitioners say that this “healing energy” is sometimes be perceived as a feeling of heat although this sensation could also derive from the heat radiating from the healers’ body.
