Reiki has been able to reduce their dependence on pharmaceutical treatment for depression, anxiety, pain, sleep and diabetes- this must always be done with the physician’s explicit agreement and careful oversight.

Reiki treatment is given not to attack disease but rather to support the person experiencing the disease. Reiki will not interfere with medical treatments, but will encourage the rebalancing of the patient’s entire system, which may lighten side effects and increase tolerance to invasive procedures.

People with long standing imbalances can benefit from Reiki Treatment. Reiki can be particularly helpful addressing the uncertainty that comes with a diagnosis of MS. Alzheimer’s patients are often calmed by Reiki treatments, and people with Parkinson’s disease may find relief from tremors, muscle tension, and agitation. Reiki can soothe painful neuropathy caused by diseases or medication.

Reiki can bring peace and calmness, improve coordination, enhance restful sleeping, speed healing from injuries or surgery, ease breathing, increase vitality, energy and mental alertness to bring ultimately a sense of contentment. Touch is also one of the senses that can provide reassurance and connection with many people with dementia.
