Scientific Validation
A research study at Hartford Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut indicates that Reiki improved patient sleep by 86 percent, reduced pain by 78 percent, reduced nausea by 80 percent, and reduced anxiety during pregnancy by 94 percent.(7)
In 2009, The Center for Reiki Research completed the Touchstone Project, which summarized Reiki studies published in peer-reviewed journals. The 25 studies examined were further evaluated to determine the effectiveness of Reiki. The conclusion states: “Overall, based on the summaries of those studies that were rated according to scientific rigor as “Very Good” or “Excellent” by at least one reviewer and were not rated as weak by any reviewer, 83 percent show moderate to strong evidence in support of Reiki as a therapeutic modality.”(8)
Those receiving Reiki describe feelings of heat and tingling similar to light pins and needles.

The practice of hands-on healing as a medical rather than a religious or magical rite goes back at least as far as the ancient Greeks. Hippocrates (circa 460 BCE) was known as the father of Western medicine because of his reliance on keen observation and the principle of cause and effect. He summed up his extensive healing experience this way:
It has often appeared, while I have been soothing my patients, as if there were some strange property in my hands to pull and draw from the afflicted parts aches and diverse impurities. – Hippocrates
Reiki enables a sick, stressed, tired, rundown or depressed person – whose energy resources are depleted, whose own light is getting dimmer, whose photon emissions are incoherent-to plug into a mains energy adaptor (a Reiki practitioner) for a recharge. As a result their energy is restored, photon coherance is improved and wellness ensues. – Stewert Ivory
As professional therapists all practitioners are aware that it is unethical to claim to cure or diagnose any illnesses. Only actual reactions are reported in clients stories and testimonials and can be verified by the clients quoted
