Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this project is to evaluate whether or not Healing Touch therapy (HT) helps to treat the stress of babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Healing Touch is a gentle use of human touch - a light, soft placement without moving of the HT therapist's hand on a baby's body - and energy to create balance and relaxation. The goal of HT treatment is to help babies rest better, have less pain and discomfort and to heal more quickly. Healing Touch works along with all the treatments and medicines babies receive as part of ordinary care in the NICU.
