There is a tendency for people to think that Spiritual Healing is only done through faith or belief of the person requiring this form of healing. This is not true. A small child, or even an animal, does not know what faith is, and yet they receive healing in the same way as everyone else. If faith or a belief is required then this could be termed only as Faith Healing and this need not necessarily have a Spiritualistic context behind it. The only requirement a recipient should have is respect for themselves and an open mind about the healer’s  capability to be a channel for the  healing force.

Spiritual Healing requires no faith or belief whatsoever on the part of the person seeking it; nor is it a requirement that the recipient has the same religious belief as that of the healer administering healing. Spiritual Healing is not specifically related to any one religion but a common bond throughout all religions. They all believe that God or a Divine Source can heal, even though it be administered in different ways. Healing is relayed through the divine source of life which people term as God. The Healer is merely a channel for this type of energy and, as such, can neither direct nor influence its natural process in any way. He or she is purely a passive channel for that energy.

Spiritual healing is not offered as an alternative to orthodox medicine but is complementary to it. People who are under medical care should continue with the treatment their doctor has prescribed

All Spiritual healers work in accordance with a Code of Conduct. To ensure that healing is received from a reputable healer, recipients should contact their local spiritualist church

Types of Healing

There are, basically two forms of Spiritual Healing in use in this country. They are:

-Contact healing where the healer places his hands near to a person

-Absent healing where the recipient is not present in person

No healing massage nor manipulation should be used during contact healing. No patient should be asked to remove any clothing except for maybe an overcoat or shoes.
