Frequently Asked Questions – Part 2

Like other systems of alternative medicines, in Reiki also there are many misconceptions

Following article is an attempt to address all those questions.

No. 1: In Reiki, some sort of exercises or heating pad are suggested – No. In Reiki, there is no use of any equipment. It is a method which directs energy to recipient.

No.2: Before receiving Reiki, it is necessary to believe in Reiki and have faith in it – No. You need to be a believer of Reiki, as it is not a religious practice. In fact, to address this issue, many animal studies have also been conducted to prove its effectiveness which once again has nothing to do with belief in Reiki.

No.3: Reiki is for mental health only and it does not work for Physical health – No. Basis my personal experience as a therapist, Reiki works on overall health.

No.4: In Reiki, acute(immediate) results are not possible – No. This is also not true. Results are based on intensity / severity of immune system and whether or not, disease /disorder is chronic or not. This is similar for all systems of treatments.

No.5: If you are considering Reiki therapy, you will have stop all other treatments – No. In fact, Reiki is one of the best complementary therapies. No need at all to stop any existing treatments.

No.6: There are few side effects in Reiki as loose motion / skin rash / vomiting / running nose, etc – No. The truth is completely opposite. Basis Reiki’s energy, body heals itself and process of purification starts.

No.7: Reiki healers have powers to influence / hypnotize mind – No. They are not magicians. In fact, Reiki helps you regain your own mental ability and wisdom by Chakra regulation / balancing.

Any kind of misconception needs clarification and it is important to research on subject rather than believing what you come across as hearsay

Reiki Therapy for Beginners and Patients

Aside
Filed under: Reiki (General Info) — 2 Comments
September 2, 2018

This article is intended for everyone who has no idea of how Reiki can be done in person by keeping Reiki therapists as well as patients point of view.

When a patient comes to a therapist,

  • 1st thing to be kept in mind is Be an Active Listener: Request introduction of the patient which requires medical history and chief complains about which the patient has arrived. Many times, mental status examination of the patient is the key. (Note: if the patient wants to avoid sharing few things, it must be overlooked).

In every case, comfort of the patient is the 1st priority.

  • After case taking, request for medical reports related to as well as not related to complains shared by the patient. Sometimes what is being shared is a symptom and not a proper cause of ailment.
  • Further, if the patient needs someone as an attendant during discussions, it should be very much allowed to make the patient feel comfortable.
  • Therapists behaviour should be polite and in a respective manner.
  • Next, a comfortable resting place should be made available to ensure patient is at ease.
  • Before Chakra examination, therapist needs to have a buy-in from patient for their understanding of the therapy and any questions should be amiably responded to. Refer link here…. https://curesbyreiki.com/2013/02/03/frequently-asked-questions-faq-about-reiki-therapy/
  • Chakra examination needs to be performed before coming to any conclusion for treatment.
  • Before treatment, patient should be made aware of sensations that they can experience and healing crisis (process of body purification) and what can be expected in short/long run.
  • Hands can be placed either on the Chakra points to be treated or 1-2 inch above particular Chakra. (Note: In-person Reiki vs Distance Reiki: In Distance Reiki, treatment can take place without patient being physical present)
  • Length of the session should be anywhere between 30-60 minutes depending on the convenience and requirement of the patient.
  • After the session is compete, Therapist as well as Patient should share their experiences and their expectations for the longer course of treatment.
  • Depending upon receptivity and severity, it might take more than 1 session for the patient to experience the result. This should be shared upfront with patient to keep transparency in your treatment.
  • During the complete course of treatment, patient also needs to be transparent and share experiences and changes to therapist.

Treatment for Speech Disorder (Cure for Stammering)… Part 2

Filed under: ENT Disorder — Leave a comment
February 12, 2017

What is Stammer and what are its causes ? Stammer or Stutter is not the disease itself but the condition or the symptom caused by  a disease / disorder. Causes for stammer and its intensity are individualistic.

Causes can be purely genetic, psychological or due to some sort of brain injury. Associated conditions with stammer that I have come across in my practice are depression, anxiety, lack of self confidence, frustration or so on….

Social issues they often have to deal with include humiliation, ignorance, bullying at workplace and school and much more. Family and care giver role is of significant importance in maintaining one’s self confidence and self esteem.

I have listed few suggestions for family and care givers as below:

  1. Stammer doesn’t mean that they have nothing to say. They have right to express themselves and speak in their own words. So, do not be hasty and take some time to listen to them.
  2. Don’t try to complete their sentences by yourself. Don’t burden them by your interpretations like.. “I understand. Do you mean to say that………!”. You might feel that this might be helping them out but in fact you take away their chance of speaking out on their own.
  3. Stay with them whenever and wherever they need you and provide adequate emotional support to them.
  4. There are number of therapies which are complimentary with Reiki in this condition,
    1. Martial-arts therapy : Use of Vocal chord is enhanced when someone practices skills of Martial arts.
    2. Auto-suggestion therapy : Type of meditation, where one is taught to give commands/ directions to himself.
    3. Homoeopathic medicine
    4. Animal assistant therapy : keeping parrots and encouraging your child to repeat its word can also be helpful.
  5. Try to find alternate words for words that are difficult enough to pronounce. For example, if someone has concerns for spelling letter “X” in word Box, try using word Carton and demonstrate its size/shape.

What is Reiki !

Filed under: Reiki (General Info) — Leave a comment
January 21, 2017

If one is familiar about concept of energy of 5 elements namely Sky, Air, Fire, Water & Earth, for them Reiki will be easy to understand. Since thousands of years, knowledge of these 5 elements is discussed between generations and passed from one to another, and as we all know that our body and mind are governed by these 5 elements and these all 5 elements has to work in harmony to maintain balance and equilibrium. Any kind of imbalance out of these 5 elements, can cause disturbances in our life and health ?

Like these all energies, Reiki is also an universal energy that can harmonize and help remove/reduce imbalances.

How Reiki works ?

In any such disturbances of energy, our body / mind looses its own ability to heal itself which is ingrained in our system since birth. Reiki helps in increasing body’s ability to heal itself. It nourishes tissues and cells and assists in natural healing process through detoxification.

Treatment for Neurological Disorder ( Cure for Migraine )

Filed under: Neurological Disorder. — 1 Comment
May 18, 2014

Symptoms of the Patient before Treatment:

1)      Display of white spots in front of eye before migraine attack started.

2)      Extreme and unbearable headache since beginning of migraine attack.

3)      Hypersensitivity to light and noise.

4)      Frequent bouts of depression and cries.

5)      Wanted to confine oneself to dark and closed room.

6)      Experienced sleeplessness and required constant sedation during migraine attack.

 

During Sessions and Post Reiki Therapy:

1)      Started feeling calm and relaxed.

2)      Hypersensitivity to light and noise was greatly reduced.

3)      No more sleep depravity, stopped frequent cries and felt no more bouts of depression.

 

My patient was a 42 years old housewife. In first meeting she informed me that she has been diagnosed with migraine. On examining her medical reports, I inquired, about her current symptoms and intensity of pain. During her case taking, I came across many important facts :  A: Painful personal history and B: Family disturbances, and hence the struggles faced both in past and present.

Her expression of grief when discussed, was as follows: “I suffer extreme headaches; these attacks are frequent and are long lasting. These episodes are very, very painful, and debilitating and sometimes come with a hammering sensation. She continued, “I cannot tolerate light, and I just close all windows and doors of my room, and I make it completely dark. I cannot even open my eyes freely due to extreme heaviness on eyebrows. It remains this way for 3 to 4 days in a stretch”.

As migraine is a disorder of the nervous system, In this case, I decided to give Reiki 1st on the Crown Chakra accompanied by Reiki on 3rd Eye Chakra. But as treatment of migraine involves treatment of multiple organs, so I then went with complete “7 Chakra treatment”. Each session was carried on daily basis for 30-45 minutes. On her fifth session, I heard some success wherein she reported having a fresh mood since last 2 days. From then on, each and every session rang positive bells wherein the patient reported gradual reduction of her grave symptoms. She could now enjoy deep sleep. She was now not intolerant of noises and started staying more in open. Gradually her tormenting headaches started reducing and later she expressed how she could now enjoy her life without migraine.

Filed under: Reiki (General Info) — 5 Comments
December 8, 2013

It is well known fact that Reiki Therapy gives wonderful result in all health diseases/ or disorders regardless of it being on a mental, physical or emotional level.

Everyone knows that it is a drugless therapy and it does no harm, but my intention is to draw reader’s attention towards most unnoticed, ignored benefits of this wonderful therapy.

  • No.1: Individualization of treatment. Which means to treat a person and not a disease/ or disorder.
  • No.2: A Reiki Therapist will treat the patient on all 3 levels (i.e. mental / physical / emotional) at some time by treating his/her Chakras.
  • No.3: Reiki Therapy has no contradictions to any other treatments, but at the same time it is complementary with Alternative and Conventional medicines.
  • No.4: There are no restrictions on food intake.
  • No.5: Reiki Therapist also provides stress counseling/coherence therapy.
  • No.6: There is no social stigma attached to getting treated by a Reiki Therapist like with some other alternative therapies / psychiatrists, as A Reiki Therapist can conduct a routine session with Arthritis patient and next with a Depression patient.
  • No.7: You yourself can go for Reiki attunement, and can start your own treatment.
  • No.8: Last but not the least, now Reiki is gaining its place in colleges of alternative medicine in and out of India also.

Effect of Emotions on our Organs : How Reiki Helps !

Filed under: Reiki (General Info) — 1 Comment
November 11, 2012

In my experience as a Reiki Therapist, many people ask me, why do i need to have a Case-Taking Session and why do i need to examine their mental state along with their physical conditions ?

Also Many people are hesitant to go for Alternative Medicine, only for the reason that they do not want to discuss their “Emotions” with their Therapist.

Following article is a detailed explanation of all their queries about emotions and a detailed description of Organ and Disease relationship.

However, there are some differentiation’s with Chinese Medicine and the Authors Opinion.

But the theory of Organ and Emotions is beautifully linked.

If we read this article thoroughly, the concept of Psychosomatic Medicine and Body-Mind Theory will be easy to correlate and comprehend.

An abstract of the article is followed by Link to the Article.

”

THE ORGAN-EMOTION LINK
Element Metal Water Wood Fire Earth
Organ Lungs Kidney Liver Heart  Spleen
Harmful Anxiety, Fear Anger Joy, Shock Pensiveness,
Emotions Sorrow     Empathy
Qi Effect Constrict Drop Rise Scatter Knot
Positive Yi Zhi Ren Li Xin
Emotions (Integrity) (Wisdom) (Kindness) (Order)  (Trust)

“

Reiki Therapy can eliminate the impact of negative emotions on the mind and body, resulting into cure of diseases and disorders.

Stammering Info : Medical News Today

Filed under: ENT Disorder — 2 Comments
June 2, 2012

Hi,

Following article is a good source of information for health care providers and care givers of people with stammering and great treatment options are also described in this article, but finally, i would like to request everyone concerned that Stammering is an disorder and NOT just an emotional outburst .What actually should be done by us is Practice/Improvise our listening skills, because the person who stammers also has a heart which beats and a mind which thinks. They too have something to speak and that is what needs to be listened & understood.
