Therapeutic touch (TT) is a valid nursing intervention but some patients feel uncomfortable with it because of personal beliefs. This commentary presents observations and experiences of the use of TT during care of Muslim patients in the Sultanate of Oman. There is need to teach nursing students deliberate steps when considering its use in Muslim patients because they increase acceptability and implementation in a culturally sensitive manner.
治疗性触摸（TT）是一种有效的护理干预措施，但由于个人信仰，一些患者对此会感到不适。本评论介绍了在阿曼苏丹国护理穆斯林患者期间使用TT的观察结果和经验。有必要教导护理专业学生，在考虑对穆斯林患者使用TT时采取深思熟虑的步骤，因为这样能以文化敏感的方式提高其可接受性和实施效果。
