Biofield therapy is a non-invasive therapy that involves interaction with the energy fields. During biofield sessions, the therapist places hands on the patient’s body or sometimes near the body to interact with the energy system. The healer then tries to manipulate the biofield surrounding the patient and transfers energy to them with the view of healing them. This continues for some time as the healer concentrates on healing with a holistic approach. In certain situations, focusing on the biofield can be practiced from distant locations also.
