Hugs are theraputic. If you attend an AA meeting, or NA , or any of the others. The members usually hug one another. And babies being massaged and held they grow and gain weight faster. And a massage will help your mind too. A hug will take a person who is afraid and give them hope and courage. The physical touch is important to all. One of the things I always did was ask first if it was okay with the patient. If it was I sat on the side of their bed and put their arm on a towel on my leg when starting an IV. They immediately relaxed and a bond was formed. Touch is so important. And angry person will melt with a hug. Love Phillipa
