The LA2050 Grants Challenge support would support Heart Touch to play an important role in filling the unmet need for non-pharmacological interventions for pain management in the healthcare system. As a leader in the field of massage therapy, Heart Touch is poised to lead the effort to train healthcare providers in non-pharmacological treatment strategies for those dealing with chronic pain. With your support, the LA-based Heart Touch will be able to lead the nation-wide effort to use compassionate touch therapy in filling this unmet need.
