whatever said on
>Yes, I meant Reiki. But if you had an extraordinary healing experience with another energy treatment, I 'd love to hear about it as well. :)
I don't know what qualifies as "extraordinary," but summaries of some experiences follow.
My first attempt at distance healing came a few years before I learned about reiki. A friend who knew I did some qigong methods of healing asked me to work on him over the phone, after he'd been diagnosed w/ a partially detached retina for which laser surgery was scheduled. So I did. A few days later he called back to tell me that the final examination before the procedure showed that his retina had re-attached and they cancelled the laser surgery.
I later used qigong and reiki when my father was diagnosed w/ pancreatic cancer. (I also taught family members some qigong methods to use, and taught my father some exercises he could do for himself.) The energy work alleviated some of the side effects of chemotherapy. Dad passed away 26 months after he was diagnosed, but his oncologist thought he would survive for only about 6 months. We're grateful for the "extra" time that he had on this earth.
My mother and I worked for an hour on a friend who'd wrenched her back and was told by her doctor that she'd have to take ibuprofen forever for pain relief. But the ibuprofen upset her digestion, so she'd stopped taking it. After the session, she's been pain-free.
Using yin energy (water-based, and flows from the ground up) has helped friends who've had issues w/ auto-immune conditions. It's also helped to reduce (greatly) the rate and severity of hot flashes for another friend.
The mother of one of my students had a mini-stroke that left her too weak to walk. My student went over to work on her the next day, and I advised and worked on her long-distance. The day after that, she was up walking around without any problem.
An e-mail friend (who sometime earlier had been hostile toward reiki) asked for help for her brother-in-law, who was diagnosed w/ hepatitis C. I advised her on sending energy long-distance, which she did for 2 or 3 months. After that, the brother-in-law's liver tests have been clean.
