Integrative Touch

Our mission is to provide connection, wellness and healing opportunities that change the lives of anyone touched by pain, suffering, or medical challenges. Integrative Touch is a leader in integrative medicine that is committed to ending isolation in illness and transforming trauma through togetherness.

We are working to change the way people experience healthcare. InTouch supports families whose children have any type of special health or medical need. This includes kids with cancers, genetic conditions, autism, cerebral palsy, traumatic stress, and other serious health issues. We have pioneered a new therapy called Integrative Touch™ and reach 3500 people each year in both the hospital and community settings. We engage communities in support of families struggling with special medical needs, improving the quality of life for all. Thanks to the incredible support of our volunteers and contributors, families receive our healing services free of charge.

Testimonials

"Every single time I'm with my TeleFriends I feel like I have more tools to be successful in life and I feel safer to be able to do what I want to do. I also feel more goodness about myself than I have in the past since starting this program. I feel happy, proud, and encouraged to be who I am and I feel confident and optimistic about the future. I LOVE InTouch!" - TeleFriend Participant, 12 years old

"We just had to reach out and say how thankful we are today that we found Integrative Touch (InTouch). Our family attended the Healing Circle this past Sunday and it was amazing. Our kids cannot stop talking about and it and asking when they can go again. It filled our cups full and gave us more than we even knew we needed. Thank you all so much. Please let us know how we can stay involved and participate in future events. My kids told me to sign up again and again. LOL We have 4 kids and money is always tight so to have events like this that nourish our entire family at little to no cost was amazing. We cannot thank you all enough. Happy Thanksgiving...thankful today for finding InTouch!!!!"

"All the medical science I'm going to present to this community over the next 10 years is not going to work without having Integrative Touch for Kids (InTouch) on my side. I'm convinced that the healing therapies provided by InTouch's Hospital Heroes will alter the function of your genes. Because if we reduce your stress level when you come to the hospital, we will be doing something beneficial to the function of your genes…this cooperation between complementary therapies-along with the new science of genomic, personalized medicine-will bring our community to the best medical care in the entire world."

"First of all a Big Thank You. What an amazing experience. What you had organized, so lovingly and thoughtfully, with all those beautiful volunteers for so many families in need, was simply fantastic. Such a healing environment and energy. I left with a sense, deep in my core, that this idea, [the Healing Circles] concept needs to spread. It is fabulous and it is what people need. Also the work of the volunteers, what these young people get to see and experience…it is so valuable for them personally, and for society as a whole. Again, thank you, you are truly making a difference."
