Touch and Well-Being
"Often times people are stressed in our culture. Stress-related
disorders make up between 80-and-90 percent of the ailments that bring
people to family-practice physicians. What they require is someone to
listen, someone to touch them, someone to care. That does not exist in
modern medicine.
One of the complaints heard frequently is that physicians don't touch
their patients any more. Touch just isn't there. Years ago massage was
a big part of nursing. There was so much care, so much touch, so much
goodness conveyed through massage. Now nurses for the most part are as
busy as physicians. They're writing charts, dealing with insurance notes,
they're doing procedures and often there is room for massage any more.
I believe massage therapy is absolutely key in the healing process not
only in the hospital environment but because it relieves stress, it is
obviously foundational in the healing process any time and anywhere."
Joan Borysenko - Massage Journal Interview, Fall 1999
Aside from being your gateway to touch and a great place to hang your
clothes, your skin is also your largest organ. In a grown man, it covers
about 19 square feet and weighs about 8 pounds. A piece of skin the size
of a quarter contains more than 3 millions cells, 100 to 340 sweat glands,
50 nerve endings and 3 feet of blood vessels. No one is exempt from needing
to be touched. Humans need to touch and be touched, just like we need
food and well being is more than skin deep. From the moment of birth our
tactile sense is being stimulated. Pushed out, picked and slapped on the
bottom, we are placed at our mother's breast, and a bonding begins. -
