Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1

Answer to Question 2

D
The practice of therapeutic touch was developed in the early 1970s by Dolores Krieger, a professor of nursing at New York University, and Dora Kuntz, a noted healer. Research has been documenting the effectiveness of therapeutic touch in wound healing, relaxation, and immunological functioning. Research participants who received therapeutic touch report significantly less pain and improved function.
