Mission Statement
The Heart Touch Project is a non-profit educational organization dedicated to bringing compassionate, therapeutic touch to medically fragile individuals dealing with chronic illness, pain and end-of-life issues.
About This Cause
Today’s healthcare providers face an increasingly de-personalized environment. Their patients often feel neglected while they themselves feel too stressed to connect with patients, while the epidemic of opioid addiction continues to grow at an alarming pace. These factors are forcing healthcare organizations to seek non-pharmacological treatments for patients in pain. The Heart Touch Project responds to both of these challenges by offering an option that combines the proven benefits of touch therapies with empathetic communication—a combination designed to promote the wellbeing and satisfaction of patients. By developing and offering specialized hands-on education for healthcare professionals, students and caregivers, Heart Touch enables trained volunteers to provide this innovative touch therapy to patients in need. Since 1995, The Heart Touch Project has been a leader in the movement to integrate mindful touch therapy into traditional healthcare settings, easing pain and stress, and improving general medical outcomes for seriously ill children, seniors and others suffering from persistent pain or terminal diagnoses.
