A Skeptic Discovers Energy Healing

July 30, 2023

by Richard Gordon, Founder of Quantum-Touch

I went to see my doctor, because I was concerned about numerous symptoms of ill health. He told me to come back when something serious developed. His advice made about as much sense as if my mechanic had told me to wait for my car's engine to blow up rather than dealing with the grinding noise under the hood.

I grew up in a family without any sense of religion or spirituality. So, it made sense that I had no experiences or beliefs to suggest that there was anything beyond mundane existence. When I was 16, I called myself a "non-theist" since I had neither an interest in the subject nor a desire to push against something I didn't believe in.

In college, through a group that focused on emotional healing, I had many experiences that caused me to believe in synchronicities. So, when three friends, who didn't know each other, all told me to visit the same healer, I took that as a sign that I should. The healer was the now-deceased Rev. Harold Plume of Monterey, CA.

There in his office, lying on his exam table I watched in absolute astonishment as he put his hand inside my belly. Subsequently I watched him work on other people in a similar way. My worldview had been irrevocably shaken.

I was soon flooded with a series of extraordinary experiences that caused me to enter a state of silent prayer wishing sincerely to know what is really true. I could not believe my old beliefs, but had not enough with which to establish a new worldview.

I attended the Christos School of Natural Healing in Taos, New Mexico in the early 70s. There we studied therapeutic massage, spiritual healing and herbal medicine. During that study I discovered an abundance of energy around my hands. Then, a few weeks later, I was introduced to Polarity Therapy, which led to a wide range of further discoveries. I eventually wrote a book on the subject, Your Healing Hands: A Polarity Experience.

Right around the time my book was going into print, about 1978, I met a man named Robert Rasmussen. Bob Rasmussen had an extraordinary ability to do hands-on healing work. One person I saw him work on was a woman with a severe case of scoliosis (spinal curvature) As he touched her back, I couldn't believe my eyes. The bones started to move of their own accord. Her hips realigned themselves. The occipital ridge realigned. Within 20 minutes, the scoliosis was two-thirds straightened out.

I immediately jumped to a few conclusions: he had some extraordinary ability; I would never be able to do it; no one else in the world would ever be able to do it. But I was wrong, because I discovered that with great focus and concentration, I could. I apprenticed with Bob and, upon his retirement, was asked to take over his practice. That's how my work, Quantum-Touch was born.

To this day, I have no personal interest in religion, but am passionate about spirituality and science. To my way of thinking, spirituality is the living experience and study of our true nature. The evolution of our consciousness and human possibilities are nearly limitless.

For the last 32 years, Quantum-Touch has inspired me with a profound sense of awe. Now, with the development of the QT Level II, my students and I can fully demonstrate that consciousness affects matter. This is not a theory, but a visible and easily repeatable phenomenon.

With so much of the world lost in fear, anger, greed, suffering and shame, I sincerely believe that it is time for humanity to discover its generous, kind, and loving nature. Quantum-Touch, spiritual yet practical, is a path to this new consciousness.
