Reiki healing

Last reviewed dd mmm yyyy. Last edited dd mmm yyyy

Reiki is a vibrational, or subtle energy, therapy most commonly facilitated by light touch, which is believed to balance the biofield and strengthen the body's ability to heal itself.

  • Although systematic study of efficacy is scant thus far, Reiki is increasingly used as an adjunct to conventional medical care, both in and out of hospital settings

  • While the majority of scientific investigations have suffered from design limitations, however, there is some suggestive evidence that Reiki can influence mood

There is no agreed upon theory for how Reiki might work, and its mechanism of action is still unknown.
