Cheerful Touch is a personal care program offered by Cheerful Heart to cancer patients currently in treatment. Care offerings now include Reiki, a therapy relating to energy healing, offered by Sharon McGuire a local practitioner. The personal care program also includes massage and skin, nail and hair care. Reiki is a technique that uses energy force to reduce stress and anxiety and encourage relaxation. The method uses gentle touch and placement for healing and tries to improve balance in the body. It does not treat conditions on its own but can be used to support traditional treatment.
