I originally found this modality of HEALING TOUCH as a patient at Scripps Green in La Jolla, CA in 2001. Where my nurse on duty asked if I would like to try a relaxation technique. My pain levels were extreme. She performed HT prior to surgery as well as post-op. I was able to receive this phenomenal treatment, changing my life for my highest good.

I sought out the treatment and found a local church support group in my area; run by Val Jean Zieber, CHTP/Spiritual Ministry. I continued to receive monthly treatments. As I progressed in healing; I started learning more. Finding education from Scripps through our Healing Touch International/Healing Beyond Borders Organization. Which has taught me self-care techniques that I continue to share.

My journey with Healing Touch continued; in 2012 as a regular recipient of this modality of healing. I started my first course work in the summer of 2012. I was excited to learn more of this incredible therapy and what it had to offer. I became a member of Healing Touch International/Healing Beyond Borders in 2014. By 2016, I was certified as a Healing Touch Practitioner - CHTP.

My role as a prior student and Certified Healing Touch Practitioner continues to include being a coordinator/helper for Foundations of Healing Touch (Course 1) and Energetic Patterning and Clinical Application (Course 2) in the San Diego California area. 

I have also become an EarSeed Certified Practitioner. Working with the Ears in Auricular Therapy. 

In addition, I continue to be of service as a volunteer; through Sharp Hospital Chula Vista and Sharp Grossmont Hospice. I also see patients and family on an individual basis.

I continue to enjoy serving as a co-Mentor for the continuance of our future mentees working toward certification. 

Marci Carisch has been a certified Healing Touch Practitioner since 2004. She has provided Healing Touch at Abbot Northwestern Hospital (the back unit and cancer unit), Children’s Hospital Hospice program and Pathways (a center for chronic and terminally ill persons and their caregivers).  She currently provides Healing Touch in her private practice in Hopkins, Minnesota.

 She first got involved in Healing touch in 1997 when her daughter at 14 months old was diagnosed with a brain tumor.  A HT practitioner did healing touch for her daughter that significantly reduced her daughter’s side effects and pain due to chemotherapy, radiation and brain surgery. During this time Marci also received HT to reduce anxiety. She became a firm believer in the healing benefits of energy work when through receiving HT she experienced a profound spiritual awakening to her truth, purpose and joy.  Her passion is to bring the healing benefits of Healing Touch to other families suffering with a chronically ill or terminally ill child and anyone hoping to reach their optimum level of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health.
