Tag Archive: Treatment



Pain & Stress are part of our life but if it becomes chronic, it turns into depression. An untreated depression can lead someone to have suicidal tendencies. Sometimes, it is absolutely okay to feel sad or disappointed, but when you have an impulse to harm yourself, you should take a back-seat and consider sincere professional assistance / treatment.

Few years back, I came across a patient who showed signs of suicidal tendencies. One female about age 30 was brought to me by one of our common friend. I was informed that the female has attempted suicide just past night. I had no detailed information regarding her depression or anything else to substantiate her agony but she was assured by my friend to get proper counselling and treatment.

During her consultation, she was quiet, did not speak much and was very much disinterested in what was happening around herself. Her depression was markedly noticeable. I requested her to feel relaxed and comfortable and started my Reiki session beginning with Crown Chakra, Third Eye and Heart Chakra in that order. It was a long session of about 90 minutes. At the end of the session, she was feeling relaxed and even laughed at one of the ice-breaker jokes which i had thrown across.

A t the end of the session, she confessed that she was not sure how Reiki would help her get relaxed and was just toeing the line on insistence of our common friend. Moreover, she assured us full heartedly that she will never ever think of self harm and would henceforth start indulging in practices which make her happy and occupy her time. Also she was grateful in telling me, that going forward, even if she comes across any low point in life, she would surely seek for assistance and treatment, rather than attempting something life threatening.

On a personal note, I was very happy that a single Long Session of Reiki, helped someone regain senses for their life!!

While pondering over this case now, it makes me realize that there lays a strong message underneath in this case for each and every one of us. Whatever we have come across, the pain, the moment, the low point of our life, all of this can be set aside by being alert to oneself and by loving oneself. (Instances where you cannot lift yourself up, one should always get connected to someone and seek for advice)

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 !


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.

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.

DETAILS:

 

                                  My patient was an adolescent girl who was brought to me by her parents for treatment. During her first consultation the first thing which was very obvious was her restlessness; at the extent, she refused to stay seated at one place. She was totally un-cooperative and started crying when I interacted with her. She disallowed physical examination and tilted her head away every time.

Despite her strong rejection, I tried performing chakra’s examination. Disturbance was found in CROWN and THIRD EYE chakra mainly. I also decided to give reiki on THROAT and HEART chakra, as patient had communication problem and emotional disturbances. As autism is a neurological disorder, CROWN chakra; called as brain chakra, is the most important chakra to be considered for this treatment, as the brain possess power to control all our bodily functions. THIRD EYE chakra is located in between the two eyes and controls all emotional and endocrinal functions. It is well known for controlling anger and emotional disturbances. THROAT chakra is located in neck and is used to treat problems related to communication and speech. HEART chakra is located in heart and is complimentary to third eye chakra.

The treatment started as 45 minutes of daily DISTANCE REIKI, as she was not allowing me to treat her by placing my hands on her. After few sessions of distance reiki, she got convinced to accept Reiki by touch. She started behaving calm and her restlessness was reduced to a lot extent. Later The sessions started ending with her deep sound sleep every time.   

After few more sessions, her parents reported her reduced anger and easy expression of views. After few more sessions she started getting conscious of herself and tried being more vocal instead of earlier use of “SIGN” language. Her frequency of cries and emotional outbursts reduced phenomenally. She started choosing colors and one day I got amazing news from her parents that she has now started approaching outsiders too.

Continued reiki sessions also resulted in her increase of concentration. She became more alert of herself. She started following suggestions of her parents. She watched news regularly and tried to comprehend the new things.

Details:- 

My patient was a 50 + aged housewife who suffered from spondylitis. She was experiencing severe pain in lumbar region (I.e. lower part of spine).  She was suffering from intense pain in the hip region due to her affection of sciatic nerve root and hence she was unable to sit. Her pain was so severe that she was unable to be in one position during her consultation. Severe pain in back deprived her from sleep at night. Each and every body movements like weight lifting, rising from the chair, etc… was very painful. Her doctor had kept her on pain killers and advised for complete bed rest. She was taking pain reliving medicines but it lead to side effects and resulted in severe hyperacidity and hence, she had to withdraw from taking the painkillers.

After thorough case taking, I found that disease was not of hereditary origin. Moreover, she had a lean constitution (body); hence Obesity related issues were ruled out. Her typical exerted housewife activities had resulted in this disease. I decided to give her reiki on lumbar region which involved sacral & root (base) chakra for 60min daily.  After just one session she reported that she can rise from the chair easily and there was less pain in body movement. On the second session she reported 50% relief in her pain. Within ten sessions she got complete relief from the pain and all other symptoms got resolved. In her last session she said that now there is no pain at all and the improvement was at such an extent that she had forgotten her all complaints and is now living a normal healthy life.

DETAILS:

 

My patient was a 32 years old female, who suffered from Chronic Depression. During her Pre-Reiki Consultation, she informed me about her fear of sudden accidental deaths. She had cried her heart out when she said that “life and death are natural processes, everybody has to die one day but living with constant fear of dying is worst then dying itself”.  She also had a peculiar mental disorder wherein she believed that howling of birds and animals around her, would lead to some unseen problems- a superstitious thought- due to which, her sleep had also got disoriented. Due to the above fears, she was not able to stay alone at her own home- which also caused her family problems; she being in a disturbed, depressive state-of-mind. The best part of the pre-reiki consultation was her being frank and open about her each and every depressive whims, which in fact, is very necessary to understand the patient & give a proper treatment.

During her Chakras examination, I detected disturbances in her Crown, Third eye and Heart Chakra. On this basis I decided to give her daily sessions of 30 min. My treatment began with Crown Chakra, as any of the diseases, especially those of the mental kind origin; this chakra is not to be neglected. Then I focused on Third Eye Chakra, wherein regulating the glandular secretions, helped me in regulating her emotions. Heart chakra then helped in restoring positive attitude and by increasing her faith in herself. Just after 3-4 sessions, she underwent changes drastically; she started feeling joyful, her depression was reduced to a great extent. Another 2-3 sessions, and her fear of death vanished. Now she felt no discomfort; no fear of, staying alone at home. Thereafter, during her last sessions, she confessed that, she had developed a positive attitude towards life and birds & animals howling were just voices for her now. Her superstitious belief had taken a backseat. Her sleep disturbances were gone, and she was now a happy person. During her last session she proclaimed, “I AM EXPERIENCING A NEW PERSONALITY WITHIN MY SELF, THIS TREATMENT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE.”

5) Physically weak and was having a stammered speech.

5) Family has seen a Remarkable improvement in his self confidence.

DETAILS:


My patient was a 19 years old male, who suffered from Stammering. His stammer was so severe that he did not utter even a single word during his first pre-reiki consultation visit. According to his parents he started to stammer suddenly at the age of 11. They started consulting many doctors & had done all possible diagnostic tests, but to no avail. Concern was that no cause was being detected for the problem at hand.


During his last 8 years, parents had consulted numerous speech therapists, homoeopaths, and considered ayurvedic treatment too, but there was no significant improvement. Due to stammering, he used to feel much embarrassed and had gradually left the studies just for the cause of avoiding talks with other classmates. Moreover he never picked up the phone so as to avoid general conversations; he used to have very limited conversations with his parents itself. His social and education life was at a standstill. His parents were very stressed and had lost hope for their child’s recovery.


During his Chakras examination, I found disturbances in his Crown, Third Eye, Heart and Throat Chakras, in the same succession. In most cases, first chakra to consider is the Crown chakra, as brain has the power to control all our bodily functions. Next comes Third Eye Chakra, as it controls our thought processes and emotions. Third eye chakra is mostly complemented with Heart Chakra and as the patient faced Stammering, Throat chakra was the one to be focused on, as it regulates speech and communication. Basis this I decided to give him Reiki session of about 45 minutes daily. After just 4 to 5 sessions, his parents saw a remarkable improvement in him. As session’s occurred, gradually there was a great change in his personality; he became expressive. He became talkative enough and began regaining his self confidence. Right now he has evolved to a much responsible, co operative, well considerate, mature & understanding member of the family. His stubbornness has reduced to a great extent. He has proved his mettle and is now capable of running his father’s own business alone. This is one of the most miraculous cure by reiki and also one of my best experiences as a therapist. Reiki surely has the power to make one regain his lost personality, self esteem and make him believe his worth living for.
