Lafayette LA Reiki Therapy Sessions | Practitioners

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words. Rei and ki. Rei means supernatural force of spiritual intelligence and Ki means life energy. Thus Reiki is spiritually guided life force energy.

Treatments can be done in person or remotely. It may aid in helping illnesses, injuries and diseases. Reiki is very versatile and can be used to heal or improve any condition or difficulty.

While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a Religion. It has no dogma and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn or use Reiki. Reiki is compatible with all Religious paths and faiths.

Sessions usually involve a combination of energy-based modalities that are individualized to fit the client.

Reiki and the Medical Community

Dr. Mehmet Oz is one of the leading cardiovascular surgeons in the United States. He became famous for his frequent appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show, as well as appearances on Larry King, CNN and numerous other networks. He now has his own television Show, The Dr. Oz Show.

The New York Times reported that Dr. Oz has allowed the use of Reiki during open-heart surgeries and heart transplant operations. Says Dr. Oz: "Reiki has become a sought-after healing art among patients and mainstream medical professionals."

Reiki is another popular energy healing therapy, which is typically performed by a trained Reiki master. Here the practitioner's light touch on, or slightly above, specific areas of the body is used to balance the flow of energy throughout the body. The laying on of hands on the head, face, neck, chest, abdomen and back delivers varying degrees of natural vibrational "heated" energy as needed, to strengthen the body to heal itself. Reiki can also be self-administered. Posted on www.doctoroz.com

Dr. Nancy Eos of the University of Michigan Medical School is one of the increasing number of doctors who incorporates Reiki in their medical practices. "I can't imagine practicing medicine without Reiki," Ego says.

One of the largest hospitals in northern California is California Pacific Medical Center. Dr. Mike Cantwell, a pediatrician specializing in infectious diseases provides one to three hour long Reiki sessions. Dr. Cantwell said, " I have found Reiki to be useful in the treatment of acute illnesses such as musculosketetal injury, pain, headaches, acute infections and asthma. Reiki is also useful for patients with chronic illnesses especially those associated with chronic pain."

Scientific Explanation for Reiki:(credit-www.Reiki.org.)

There is a scientific explanation for Reiki that is based on scientific studies and factual information. This explanation has been presented as a testable hypothesis by James Oschman, Ph.D.

Dr. Oschman is a scientist with a conventional background who became interested in the practice of energy medicine. Through research, he discovered a number of important scientific studies that point to a scientific basis for energy medicine based on the laws of physics and biology. These findings are discussed in an interview, “Science and the Human Energy Field,” published in the Winter 2002 issue of Reiki News Magazine.

The electrical currents that run through every part of the human body provide the basis for Dr. Oschman’s hypothesis. These currents are present in the nervous system, organs, and cells of the body. For instance, the electrical signals that trigger the heartbeat travel throughout all the tissues of the body and can be detected anywhere on the body.

The fields around each of the organs pulse at different frequencies and stay within a specific frequency range when they are healthy, but move out of this range when they are unhealthy. The hands of healers produce pulsing electromagnetic fields when they are in the process of healing, whereas the hands of non-healer do not produce these fields.

When a healer places his or her hands on or near a person in need of healing, the electromagnetic field of the healer’s hands sweeps through a range of frequencies based on the needs of the part of the body being treated. Faraday’s law indicates that one electromagnetic field can induce currents into a nearby conductor and through this process, induce a similar field around it.

In this way, a healer induces a healthy electromagnetic field around an unhealthy organ, thus inducing a healthy state in the organ. A detailed explanation of this hypothesis, including descriptions of the scientific studies, diagrams, and references is presented in William Rand's website: www.Reiki.org
