I would never charge and I would never allow anyone to know it was I that healed them. I believe it it were possible to heal another I could do a lot more good if no one knew what I could do.

I would not advertise it openly for there would surely people who would try to take advantage of it. I would seek those who needed healing and cure them for free and if possible, without them knowing it was me.
by Da Azian Boi on September 29th, 2007
I would do it for free. It would end suffering, I would not want people to pay for their suffering to end. It should end as soon as possible.
by DA BEN DAN yanggui zi on September 29th, 2007
free...that would be payment enough
by Firebrand on September 29th, 2007
If it was a gift God had given me it would be meant to help people not to charge them for the help.
by Anonymous on September 29th, 2007
I wish i could fix the world and all within
and no i would not wish to receive payment for it :)

If I had a healing touch,... I'd grab my own head and yell,... Heal! Then I'd help other for free if it worked.
by WVUMountaineers on October 24th, 2007
I wouldnt want it at all unless it was a gift from god because that is his job. But if it was a gift from god I would not charge and would only use it when he told me to.
by Jade on October 1st, 2007
If I had a healing touch, it would be a gift..I would not charge the people I helped because that is not the way to use or appreciate a gift.
by prettybird on October 1st, 2007
I would do it for free because if I had a healing touch it would be a gift from God given to me freely so I would use that gift freely and free of charge

Doctors pracvtice this everyday and are paid for their important work, the worker deserves his wages!
by Muffy on November 6th, 2008
I would NEVER EVER Charge... I believe that it is a gift from our creator, whomever He or She might be... Those blessed with the wonderful abilities were granted them for the purpose of helping and healing others.. It's part of Their individual Purpose here on earth...
by SakuraEmma on August 2nd, 2008
I would do it for free with no judgment. I wouldn't advertise it, but if it became known I wouldn't turn anybody away...as long as it doesn't hurt me in the end(you know overuse of powers) I watch to much t.v. and play too many games. lol. I wished I did have that power though. great question, by the way.
by Twhupfold on January 18th, 2008
I would use it to help people for free, since I do not believe people should have to pay to stay healthy. (Doctors and such should be paid for their work, but patients should not have to pay to survive).
by U..P.. on September 29th, 2007
For free. If you think of all the people who need help, how could you bring yourself to charge them money every single time?
by sousakuryoku on July 8th, 2009
Depends on the situation I guess. I think it would take some kind of effort to heal someone.
The more effort (or time) it takes, the more you are in need of financial support to be able to carry out the healing.
I would rather not charge a person for healing. A tip would be nice though :)
by Anonymous on November 23rd, 2008
you would`nt need money you would be eternally busy.and i`m sure your needs would be met.
by Samantha on November 23rd, 2008
I feel that anyone who is healed and receives the healing touch gain much to live a life with no further pain and suffering.The channel which instrumented the healing deserves to be paid with gratitude of service just like any other professional person.
by hhhttt on August 27th, 2008
I would do it for free bnecause it would be disgusting to ask a dying man or woman for money to save their life.
by Vannie prays for babycakes . on June 17th, 2008
Would keep my current job and help people for free :) !
by BDazzled on June 17th, 2008
Complimentary...and infrequently because I would not want to spend my life beign swarmmed by ill people when really, they can help themselves anyway.
by allikatzpop on June 7th, 2008
if you charged for it you could be prosecuted .
by King of Sexytown on June 7th, 2008
If I charged people for it I would just be a stinky doctor.
by oceanoscuro on June 7th, 2008
I wouldn't tell anyone. If a loved one were dying I'd help w/o letting them know. But honestly, people need to die.

What would happen, when I masturbate?
by Namaste formerly future_health_educator on March 6th, 2008
I am a reiki practioner. Reiki is a form of healing touch. It's funny that no one expects a massage therapist to give his or her services for free. That said I give friends and family treatments for free. I also volunteer my time twice a week at a free reiki circle. The circle is not the same as a full treatment but it still benefits many people. When I decide to open up a practice I will charge money. If I knew of someone who was in dire need I might barter or do sliding scale.
by Aaa on January 18th, 2008
I would use it for to help people, I am waiting on a kidney transplant so I know the cost real well Of healing people in todays medicine. And the hardship of being so sick, noone should have deal with this crap and have to pay for it.Also my father died of cancer if I could help over come that to that would make my life.
by d man on November 17th, 2009
the power would not be mine,such a power would come only from GOD,and the gift of love is always free.
by The Genius on October 25th, 2009
Most of the time we have the ability to heal certain individuals without knowing so...if any healing has been done it would determined by the individual.
You have to be more specific as to what type of healing powers your relating to.
I've been doing a bit of Palmistry and that to me is considered a healing process. Most people make the assumption that Palmistry is used to depict the future, but in reality its not. Its more of a method to conduct a character analysis of that certain individual.
by Chrissy on October 3rd, 2009
I'd do it for free. :)
by Audiotron on May 22nd, 2009
Free, but I would accept donations!
by PatriciaSquires on May 22nd, 2009
I do have healing touch. It is a gift from God that I have further developed. And after years of trying to help others and struggling within my own life I now charge. I'm real clear that the 'work' I do for others is free... however, my time is not. Like everyone else I must pay rent, utilities and phone bills. I've worked hard to be 'debt free' so all I have is my monthly bills to live on this planet. Charging those who can afford it gives me the opportunity to help others without having to work at Wal-mart to eat and have a place to live. And it frees up the rest of my time to work pro-bono for those in a hard place and in need of life, body, mind, energetic and spiritual healing.

I would try to keep it a secret. I would like visit hospitals and touch people and then run away.
by vagasso on March 17th, 2009
I'd make those who could afford to pay and I'd do it for free those who couldn't afford it. My biggest worry about having those kind of powers would be that everyone would expect me to heal them so I'd probably refuse to use my powers for two weeks out of each month unless someone was immediately going to die in front of me or, keep my ability as secret as possible while still using it.
by chocky on March 17th, 2009
i would surely help people for free as i will think it is a booon for me given by god just to serve the needy......
by -Light to the World- on March 10th, 2009
For free.

by good1 on February 10th, 2009
I would not charge them...it would make me feel good to help them...If I could pick the healing touch that I had it would be to rid people of cancer..it affects so many, so unfairly!
by daisychain on February 10th, 2009
For free, I got the gift for nothing, I would feel bad demanding cash, or making a profit. Why should only those that can afford to be healed get healed, that is harsh.
Health should be a right not a luxury in a civilised world as this.
However, of course I would accept donations from those able to pay me if they wanted to, I need to pay the bills right?
by OldCW wears The COAT of the Cosmos on February 10th, 2009
I have that gift of healing. Charging money is how you weed out the people who don't take you seriously. Trust me on this, if it's free, everyone wants it, but once they have to pay money, that number dwindles down to next to no one.
I tried making a business of it years ago, but people don't really value it all that much. It's a novelty to them.
For those of you who would give it away for free; try it sometime. See how much fun you have at it after a couple of months of being bothered by desperate people looking for a cheap way out. (Free = bargain hunters = major hassle/no reward.)
Free also means giving up your time in exchange for nothing but a few tips. It's not enough to give you a decent life. If no one is taking care of you, you're going to lose interest in taking care of other people pretty quickly.
by Constanze777 on February 8th, 2009
Absolutely. That would make me very happy.
by Wind Walker on January 28th, 2009
I am a healer. This is not like I'm Christ or something where I can do it in an instant. It takes time, energy, effort, knowledge and expertese. Quite often many sessions. My best results have been animals. People are harder to do for me. It requires pure love, that's the trick. This is not magic. Just pure love. And the ability to move energy.
I do not charge but people are wonderful. They always come through in whatever way they can.
by rambo09 on January 26th, 2009
If I had that touch, means, Im sitting on a goldmine.... Id probably charge based on their deeds, if someone does good things, then good things happen to them, else cough up mate :D
by Witchjunkie on January 7th, 2009
A person with such powers would not be thinking of chargeing because good Karma would be following and wealth not necessary.
by kimber on January 7th, 2009
We all have the gift of healing
threw our touch, when I Hug a sad
freind I Hug her to make feel
better. I Could,nt Imagine sayinb
oh, by the way I'm going to need
$5.00 for that hug.
Plus you could live pritty darn
good off a true healing touch
think of all the places you would
travel, the things you would do
the people u would heal would bare
that exspense. Now for the poor thats
were you might need to charge other people
money so you could get to them. but,
if u had the magic touch I'm sure you could
heal your way to anyone.
by are we alone on November 23rd, 2008
if i could heal i would if i could stop the pane i would they would be gifts i could not charge for that
by Bsweet. on November 23rd, 2008
i would help people for free.:)
by Ed the Jetpacking Headbanger on November 23rd, 2008
Free to those who can't afford it.
It might sound wrong, but could you imagine the amount of people who would be bothering you non-stop? You would deserve something for this.
by Rollie on November 23rd, 2008
I set up a "Healing Word and Touch" corporation. I'd then use the touch for free amongst the people of earth, however, asking for a donation to my corporation for the furtherance of the advancement of the "Word of the Healing Touch". No different than religious organizations asking for a free-will offering (sometimes coerced). If necessary I'd register it as a religion with me as the paid administrator.
I could do a lot of good with the money!!!
Test your Psychic abilities-11:12 my time i am thinking of a color for 15 minutes. what is the color? Will focus on this color.
