Summary

This study looks at whether therapeutic touch—a gentle, non-invasive therapy—can lower stress and boost comfort in people on hemodialysis. About 60 patients will be split into two groups: one receiving touch sessions and the other getting usual care. The goal is to see if this simple, drug-free approach improves well-being during a tough treatment.
