I have bought many different energy based books, and used different energy based therapies and exercises with great results.

This book caught my attention because very positive statements were made about it comparing it favorably with reiki and qigong etc.

It is well written, concise and very easy to follow. The exercises are easy to do. If you were to do the visualization, and various simple breathing patterns, you could start moving energy within minutes, and as you practice more and more then your skills will improve dramatically.

With the QT exercises I can feel strong sensations throughout my body particularly in my hands and feet, and I am not an expert in this field.

QT enables you to generate healing energy through your hands to work on yourself and others.

There is a scientific principle called entrainment. If two items are vibrating side by side at different speeds then the item that vibrates at the lower speed will adjust to vibrate at the same frequency as the other object.

Examples of this are swings in a playground that are swinging out of sync and adjust. Also, in a clock store you may notice the pendulum clocks of the same size swinging back and forth in unison.

This principle applied to QT is that when you apply the higher healing vibration to an area of pain or disease (low vibration) it causes that area to reattune itself to the higher vibration, and thereby cure it.


This method I find easier than Qigong for example. I am delighted with the results I am getting. This is the best book of this type I have read so far.

I also highly recommend EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) which is a simple acupressure technique which can be done in less than two minutes. Can you imagine easily letting go of emotional issues such as anger, anxiety, fear, forgiveness, sadness, stress, phobias, procrastination, trauma etc. You can research this further and download a free manual at [...], and buy various EFT books at Amazon. Hope you found this helpful.

As a nurse-healer, I am always studying the dynamic and often mysterious process of energy-based healing. When I read Quantum-Touch, I knew I had discovered an important key to the process of accessing and directing the subtle energy which we healers use. I quickly put the information into action and feel as if the quality of my healing work has taken a quantum leap. The book is a true joy to read, never complicated, down to earth. I loved this book and after reading it cover to cover, I went out and bought 4 copies to give to my closest friends. I am now rereading it. Richard Gordon is a deeply developed healer with the ability to communicate the process of energy (life-force) science in a beautiful style. I recommend this book to anyone who has interest in developing the art and science of hands on healing.

Quantum Touch is a must have for any serious energy healer. Being a Reiki Master of Usui I recommend this book to anyone that takes their healing art seriously.

For any one who is unfamilar with the life force (prana, chi, etc.) breathing exercises (called Pranayama in India) that increase the prana or life force in ones body during a healing session increases the level of the healing in those being healed... if that makes sense. My point is, the strength and level of the healers energy level is very important to a fast and effective healing. Most reiki healers believe that all you need to do is open the channel to start the flow, I believe the channel needs to be healthy, unblocked, and super charged with life force enrgy.

This book is very thorough and covers many areas of healing like distance, animals, emotional healing, group healing, etc.

This book is very similar to any other energy healing method but adds to a reiki masters knowledge base. I believe even though many people call their techniques by different names, it is all using the same energy. So do not get confused by names of light, energy healing, pranic healing, or reiki.

Quantum-Touch is world-class healing you can learn in a weekend just by reading this book. If you have the opportunity to take a personal hands-on workshop, so much the better. The practical experience is priceless.

There was one reviewer on Amazon who asserts that the photos of healing are fake. Nothing could be further from the truth. I took some of the photos that appear on the Quantum-Touch web site, (the ones showing healing scoliosis), and I can say without reservation that the extraordinary healing brought about by Quantum-Touch is nothing short of phenomenal. I have more photos of healing to share which will appear on the Quantum-Touch website as well as my own web site RebuildHealth.com.

Anyone who wants to help others will find the Quantum-Touch method to be awesomely powerful, and will find the book a wonderful source of practical information and inspiration. If anything, at 5 stars it is under-rated. I would give it 10 stars if I could. Richard Gordon did not hold back when writing this book. He gives the complete method, clearly explained, and offers many options for creating a powerhouse of healing in your hands. I regard this book as essential reading for all parents and for practitioners of all the healing arts.

While this method may be similar to Reiki - I recommend it way beyond any Reiki books or trainings - at least the author is not delluding you into going through any initiations, but you get to learn how align yourself with the power within you and let it flow to help heal yourself or others.

Through a little bit of practice, you can become very proficient in helping both yourself and others. It is a good supplement for taking care of your health and sometimes you'll find that this is all that you need.

There were times when I helped friends with long-standing and annoying health problem accompanied by intense pain - get rid of it using just the techniques as they are described in this book.

Some other similar books you may check are the ones that deal with Pranic healing. It will enrich your repertoire.

As a hypnotist I have been using the similar method, but instead of directing the flow of healing energy through the hands, using only mind. I did at times have clients who had scoliosis and to whom I also recommended to check out this book and who have experienced noticeable improvements where their medical doctors told them nothing more could be done.

Techniques in this book are very simple, straighforward and very well explained and sooner or later you may find it really handy to know them.

"Quantum-Touch" is a powerful book. I have used energy healing techniques for over 23 years, and after applying the easy and accessible techniques in this book I have increased my capacity dramatically in just the first few weeks. The book is written in easy to understand language that demystifies healing energy work. I cannot say enough good things about this book and the author. I was fortunate enough, after reading the book, to attend a workshop presented by Richard Gordon. I found him to be sincere and dedicated to the idea that we all possess the power to heal and if given the chance we will use it. I encourage anyone interested in life and health to read this book. It not only contains wonderful and simple techniques, it also contains invaluable information for general health and well-being all presented with humor and love. Buy it, read it, use it and spread the word, we are ALL healers.

Quantum Touch as developed by Richard Gordon is a healing modality where the practitioner establishes, amplifies, and maintains an energy field with a unique frequency signature. The patient's job is to deeply relax, and develop a resonate sensitivity to that field and eventually entrain to it on a cellular level. The patient's "dis-eased" area changes its energy pattern to cohere and configure to the stronger pattern in the practitioner's field until the patient's pattern has stabilized and she is "healed."

Anyone can learn this and I've seen some amazing results without side effects. I'm glad to see that we are getting more and more alternatives to traditional medicine. With some research at the Stanford University School of Medicine on Mr. Gordon, its interesting that science is beginning to get out of its box to take a look.

This is exciting stuff:

Alternative Medicine Magazine in the July 2001 issue calls Quantum-Touch, "... a significant breakthrough in hands-on healing." They go on to say that "...for professionals and lay people alike, Quantum-Touch is an essential and invaluable tool."

Dr. C. Norman Shealy, Founding President of the American Holistic Medical Association calls Quantum-Touch, "... the first technique that may truly allow us all to become healers." He also wrote the foreword to this book after he became impressed that Quantum-Touch provided dramatic and lasting pain relief to his patients with 20 to 30 years of chronic pain, who had not been helped by any traditional or alternative modality.

This is the only book I know of on hands-on healing that is praised by physicians, chiropractors, acupuncturists, physical therapists, nurses, Reiki masters, chi gung instructors, and a host of other health care professionals.

Dr. Darla Parr, D.C. wrote, "You actually have to see this work to know how good it is. Bones move into alignment with just a light touch, and it speeds up the healing process."

Amazingly, you can actually learn to use Quantum-Touch from just reading the book, but if you get the chance, I highly recommend attending a Quantum-Touch workshop.

Over the years I have read many books on healing. I have been trained in KOFUTU Touch Healing and KOFUTU Absent Healing and have had some success with each but nothing compares to Quantum Touch. The book is very clear with simple exercises. After completing the first exercise, I felt so much energy in my hands that I decided to try it out on myself. At the time, my left knee and hip were so stiff and painful that I was afraid I was going to have to cancel a shopping trip that I had been planning. When I placed my hands on my knee, I immediately felt 3 small, sharp pains as I felt my knee cap actually shift, although I was applying no pressure. The pain migrated to my hip but it went away when I placed my hands on my hip. The stiffness and pain were completely gone and I spent the next day shopping. The pain and stiffness have not returned, nor have I felt any pain or stiffness in any other joints.
My background in yoga was a definite help because breath control was not new to me; my KOFUTU and meditation experience also contributed to my first success. I believe that it takes practice and dedication to truly master QT but with this book and the author's technique, anyone can have immediate success on some level. I recommend it highly to anyone who feels the need to heal themselves or others.

Richard Gordon talks about a "new", though really very old, way of working with energy that is so simple I was able to learn and actually use it in one day. He explains why he thinks it works in very clear, modern, scientific language -- thus the "quantum" in the touch. He relates it to the most recent studies in physics.

What can you do with Quantum Touch? Raise your own energy vibration so the person you touch can use your higher energy level to heal themselves! Marvelous! The healer is the one receiving the energy. A fantastically simple and wonderful technique. You don't have to believe it for it to work, it just does!
