This review is from: Guided Relaxation with Touch Therapy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"Congratulations on your marvelous video Guided Relaxation with Touch Therapy. Your video is terrific from start to finish, and engages all of the senses in healing. In clear, direct language with your soothing voice, you demonstrate centered, healing principles, as you combine guided relaxation with touch therapy. Your video is rich with a variety of specific interactions which all health care practitioners can incorporate into their everyday practice and lives. The review of background and up-to-date research on touch therapies provides the conceptual framework for understanding these healing modalities. Your emphasis on a healing environment, both the internal healing environment within the practitioner, and the external healing environment of the setting, are very well done. Through your gentle demonstration of these healing modalities, you also explore what healing really is, how it can take place, and the role of unconditional love as a healing force. Your video is a grand synthesis of heartfelt thinking and compassionate action. It offers a treasury of profound insight for people in the healing professions."

5.0 out of 5 stars A simple but powerful relaxation technique, April 13, 2000

This video is great! It teaches a simple but very powerfultechnique that you can use with friends or family to help them getdeeply relaxed. The technique combines a kind of touch therapy with a script for guided relaxation (hence the name). You can learn to use this technique by following along while Jon Seskevich, who uses this same technique to relax hospital patients, performs a live demonstration. Do what he does, and you've got it right. Also, you can play the audio part, where he speaks the relaxation script, while you do the touch part. This makes it really easy to get started using the technique. His voice is so soothing, it's relaxing just to hear him go through the guided relaxation. Although there are other tapes that teach different kinds of relaxation and massage, I think this is the best way to get started. If you want to help someone you care about get really relaxed, this is the way to go. This simple technique works, and this video gives you everything you need.
