Nowadays alternative therapies have become fashionable, their use is aimed at treating diseases that afflict the population rather than simple occupational practice. There are therapies that are known worldwide for their antiquity and the benefits they bring to those who resort to them have even been scientifically proven, an example of this is Reiki, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, among others; However, with the increase in the use of alternative medicine, therapies have been emerging that are little known but gaining adherents. One of these therapies is ThetaHealing. This new therapy, ThetaHealing, aims to make available to people an effective healing method combining meditation, neurolinguistic programming, spirituality and energy management. It is a simple practice to perform, it does not require physical effort and the Healer (practitioner) can apply it to other people (clients), so it is important to know what the reach and effectiveness can be, since it could be a tool to help to the treatment of diseases.
