Answer to Question 1

A, C, E
Feedback:
Healing touch incorporates the techniques of therapeutic touch and adds the approaches to open energy blockages, seal energy leaks, and rebalance energy fields. Manipulation of soft tissues is done through massage. Applying pressure to body areas is done with acupressure.

Answer to Question 2

C
Patients who have undergone a modified radical mastectomy should be instructed to avoid sleeping on the involved arm. An exercise regimen, built up gradually, can help reduce lymphedema.
