Martha Rogers was a nursing theorist who believed in the concept of unitary human beings, and her theories emphasized the interconnectedness and integral nature of the human body, mind, and spirit. Noncontact therapeutic touch is based on the premise that energy can be exchanged between individuals and used to promote healing and balance. This belief in the exchange of energy aligns with Rogers' theories about unitary human beings.
