This article discusses the potential benefits of attuned touch in the psychotherapeutic treatment of individuals diagnosed with functional neurological symptoms (FNS). A defining trait of FNS is that the symptoms are not explained by identifiable neurological pathology. For that reason, as well as its general efficacy, psychotherapy is a common treatment modality for clients with FNS. Although research has shown the importance of attuned touch in human development, bonding, and communication, its clinical application has been a controversial topic. Individuals with FNS are frequently “out of touch” with themselves and their surroundings and display signs of both psychoform and somatoform dissociation. Attuned touch can help to address these issues by enhancing the therapeutic alliance and increasing the client's sense of trust and safety. This article argues that when attuned touch is introduced as part of a psychotherapeutic technique, it not only addresses one of our basic human needs in relationships with one another but may thereby contribute to positive psychotherapeutic outcomes for individuals experiencing FNS.
