Abstract
This descriptive study was to investigate therapeutic touch (TT) on adult tension headache pain. Ten tension headache pain sufferers were selected from a chiropractic clinic in southeastern Ontario. Subjects were randomly assigned to control and experimental groups using Rogers’ science of unitary human beings. An interview schedule, adapted from the Carboni Unitary Measurement Tool (1992), was administered before and after TT. Data were collected, recorded, and analyzed by the treatment group. Results suggested that one application of TT was useful in reducing tension headache pain in all subjects who received authentic TT. Strategies for implementing TT in nursing practice are offered.
