Jean M. White, founder of Pennsylvania Healing Touch, in Langhorne, will be teaching Healing Touch Level 1 from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., November 11 and 12, at Holy Redeemer HomeCare, in Philadelphia. The two-day course includes 16 continuing education contact hours of instruction for nurses and massage therapists, and is ideal for those professions as well as anyone interested in gaining an in-depth understanding of this energy-based healing modality.

Healing Touch is an energy therapy in which practitioners use their hands to restore and balance energy in a heart-centered and intentional way. The Healing Touch Program is a six-level course that incorporates a variety of basic-to-advanced healing modalities and certifies participants from beginner to advanced practitioner, expert and instructor. The program is an accredited provider of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), the world’s largest and most prestigious nurse credentialing organization.

A teacher, mentor and holistic practitioner, White has been a certified Healing Touch practitioner since 1998 and a certified holistic nurse since 1995. She studied with Janet Mentgen, the creator of the Healing Touch Program, before founding her private practice. In addition to teaching Level 1 workshops in the Philadelphia/Bucks County area, White integrates Healing Touch into her work with private clients and in end-of-life care as a complementary therapy nurse at Holy Redeemer Hospice.

“I love mentoring and bringing this work to others on many levels because it is loving and heart-centered work,” says White. “It brings a different and complementary level of caring to the realm of traditional and individual health care, making it truly holistic, treating body, mind and spirit.”
