Touch Therapies and the Occult   

So what do Touch Therapies have to do with the occult? The answer is lots. Touch therapies are saturated with occult practices that each one of us should be aware of. Lets take a moment and explore various occult practices and how they are part of alternative medicine's touch therapies.

Clairsentience - This is the occult method of gaining supernatural insight and information through "touch". It is the primary method used in all touch therapies treatments. Practitioners will use their hands to feel for hot and cold spots, changes in electromagnetic frequency and energy deletions.

Claircognizance - This is the occult method of knowing or of having sudden inspirations of insight. It is an inner sense of knowing. Often, claircognizance is portrayed as having premonitions or flashes of insight. Touch therapies use claircognizance to gain knowledge of illnesses reasons, causes and cures. Practitioners may refer to it as making a psychic connection with their clients.

Clairvoyance - This occult method of insight comes from the 17th Century French word meaning  "to see". Seeing the supernatural is one method used by touch therapists to "read auras", see depletion's in the "human bio-field" and visualize deceased family members, angels and spirit guides to get information and assistance in performing touch therapies.

Clairaudience - This occult practice uses sound and hearing to attain supernatural insight. Practitioners hear voices, receive impressions and communicate back and forth with spirits and the deceased. This information is often used to ascertain information privy to the deceased and a loving family member to bring assurance of life beyond death. "Hearing" the voices of supernatural beings, deceased family members and receiving "impressions" from them is how touch therapists gain insight in gathering information which can assist in a client's healing process.

These are just a few ways that touch therapists use to connect with the occult in their practice of touch medicine. All of these terms come from the practice of spiritism, seances and the occult. How can any of these be termed "alternative medicine"? As we have shown time after time, touch therapy is a religious belief and practice - it is not medicine at all.

As Christians, we should avoid the slightest contact with the dark arts which are so enmeshed with the occult and the demonic. Instead, we are to expose these things to the light of Christ. John the Apostle said, "God is light and in Him is no darkness at all". Ouija Boards, movies and  TV programs that portray the practice of the occult should not be part of the Christian's life or one his forms of entertainment. These practices are not entertainment, are not simply fascinating topics to explore, these practices are from the Abyss and they seek to fascinate a world, hungry for a spiritual experience but looking for it outside of Christ.

Just because paranormal experiences, vampires and Harry Potter are among the most popular forms of entertainment today, doesn't mean that Christians should join the crowd and become enamored with them. Jesus told us, "Be in the world, but be not of the world". The world  is this world's present evil system, opposed to God and opposed to those in Christ. The Bible commands us, "Come out from among them and be ye separate". We are to be "Holy as he is Holy".

Let's make a decision to stand out from the crowd, to be as different as it takes to let others know that we stand with Christ. If you find that you have been involved in toxic alternative therapies, or have got weighted down with occult entertainments, you can make a change right now. Tell your heavenly Father of your new determination to change and renounce your former lifestyle. Turn 180 degrees around and begin to live your life in a different way.
