Why and How Does Reiki Work?

By: Lorelei F.
 

Reiki. Hmph. Another one of those new-agey, wacky alternative medicines that gullible people spend all their money on. I very seriously doubt it will work, don't you?

That's a popular type of thinking about Reiki and alternative medicine in general. And it's pretty appealing to the logical, scientific brains of our time. Except for one dilemma...Reiki does work and millions of people could say from personal experience that this is true.

But here we sit in the Scientific Age of Reason. And we ask how does Reiki Work? In point of fact, we don't think it does. It shouldn't work, we say. It couldn't work. It has no drugs-no surgery. 'Normal' doctors avoid it. You can't see Reiki and you can't hear it. So how could it possibly work? And from this standpoint we rational brains simply assert...Reiki doesn't work

But there's still that little problem... Reiki does work.

In fact, Reiki is an age-old Japanese method of healing and spiritual enhancement that has been around for centuries. (Hmph. All the more reason to be skeptical. I mean what did they know about medicine a thousand years ago?) Reiki uses a technology whereby you lay your hands on a person. (Put your hands on someone, you have to be kidding me. I'm a scientist.) It is as if you use your life-force or energy to move the stuck places in another person life-force. (Energy and life-force, what is this nonsense?)

Well it now appears that science itself is coming up with a good and scientific theory to answer the question 'How does Reiki work?' Because Reiki actually does work. And the explanation is coming from the new and pioneer field of high-energy physics. (Hmm. Physics, huh?) As these scientists talk about high-energy physics, they bandy about terms like 'subatomic matter', 'unpolarized' and 'vortex' theory. From all of this, one gets the strong impression that there is some kind of energy flowing- energy that is way too small for us to detect by our standard methods of measurement.

Now this energy can't be seen, but it can certainly be felt. If you are being practiced on, for instance, you will often feel a spreading warmth, or even cold sensation in the area that is being worked on. On the other hand, if you are the practitioner, you will often feel a pins and needles kind of tingling warm sensation.

Now let's take a better look at who has been using this Reiki stuff. If we really put our minds to it, we may be surprised at what we find out. For instance, do you remember the old biblical 'laying on of hands?' I hate to say it, but that does sound an awful lot like Reiki. So maybe, when we look back to our past as a race, we can see that people in the days of old were not as dopey as we once thought. They had some kind of intrinsic knowledge, for instance, that if something works- don't question, don't ask why or how- just use it. I wonder sometimes if we can't use a slice of their common-sense, old fashioned though it is to the Age of Reason advocates.
