GET TO KNOW THE PRACTICES

Reiki & energy practices

Reiki practitioners use light touch or hold their hands above the body. Other energy practices have their own methods and training systems. Ask which approach a practitioner uses.

What to ask

Ask about consent to touch, session length, fees, and training. A course certificate is not a medical qualification.

Keep in mind

NCCIH reports that Reiki has not clearly been shown effective for any health-related purpose, and its proposed energy field has no scientific evidence.
