How to Find a Palmtherapy Practitioner
Palmtherapy is a form of alternative medicine used to help lessen emotional pain, such as depression, by stimulating the palms and lines of the hands. Created by Moshe Zwang in 1985, Palmtherapy advocates the increase of personal power by focusing on the connection between the hands, emotions and the brain.

Research Palmtherapy Procedures
1
Visit the Palmtherapy Web site (see resources below). You'll find information about the history of Palmtherapy as well as its treatment for boosting self-esteem, overcoming distressing memories and defeating mild depression.
2
Find schools that teach about alternative medicine to connect with others who have had Palmtherapy or perform it.

Locate a Palm Therapist in Your Area
1
Go to the "Certified Therapists" link on the homepage of the Palmtherapy Web site to locate a practitioner. This section is broken down by country and state.
2
Review the Web sites of any practitioner you're interested in working with. Then, call or email them. Ask what type of certifications they possess and whether their facilities have the equipment used to perform Palmtherapy, like a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS) machine.
3
Choose an alternative center. A facility that offers a number of services, like mind-body counseling and nutritional programs, can add to your Palmtherapy sessions.
Tips & Warnings
Network at your local health food store to find palmtherapy practitioners. Often the sales associates or customers are familiar with holistic or alternative therapies and sometimes have literature available.
Palmtherapy is performed by a medium-level massaging of the hands. Other possible tools used are a pointed dull object and treatments via a TENS machine.
Normally, the cost for Palmtherapy is moderately priced; but the number of sessions you'll need depends upon the circumstances of your symptoms.
Palmtherapy is not officially recognized as a medical treatment for clinical depression, anxiety, phobias, and other mental or physical conditions. Consult a medical doctor or psychologist for help with severe symptoms.
Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
