Singer Chris de Burgh has said he has healing hands which have “helped reduce pain” for people with injuries.
He told of a golfer who had seriously hurt his leg in an accident, but who began walking again “within 20 minutes” of his form of “alternative therapy”.
“We all have the facilities within our hands to feel other people’s pain spots,” the Irish star told BBC One’s Heaven and Earth programme.
He said his musical work meant he was “connected very strongly” to his hands.

I also feel I have to declare at this point that I am “connected very strongly” to my hands. And my nose, ears, legs and buttocks. Boom boom.
Isn’t it bad enough that De Burgh is responsible for one of the most vomit-inducing songs of all time, but now he claims he has healing powers? I have a vision of him pawing the sick and injured to the tortuous strains of ‘Lady In Red’, and it is making me feel slightly queasy.
De Burgh also claims that we are “surrounded by a strong force”. Yes. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together.
