Is Reiki safe? It absolutely is. Since the treatment consists of only light touching or "beaming" energy from a distance, no muscle tissue or bones are manipulated, so there is practically no risk of accidental injury. It is positively benign and innocuous. |

Can anybody receive Reiki? Yes, they can. Reiki does not discriminate between genders, ethnicities, age, religion, or anything like that. Is is open and available to anyone who is open to it. It can even benefit those skeptics who aren't sure about whether they believe it can work or not but are willing to give it a try. The only one Reiki doesn't work on is any person who outright rejects it! Reiki is a non-intrusive energy and simply does not go where it is not welcomed. Other than that exception Reiki can go anywhere it is needed. |

Is Reiki a form of magic? I think not. Magic generally carries the stigmata of being either an illusion or a trick of some kind, or it makes people think of dark sorcery like in movies and comic books. Personally, I like to think of Reiki as a science of energy medicine. |

Is Reiki a replacement for conventional medicine? Not at all! Reiki is a complementary form of health care and tends to work hand-in-hand with conventional medicine. Many times Reiki can help prepare a surgery patient mentally and emotionally for their upcoming procedure, and it has been known to ease and quicken the recovery process afterwards. In addition, Reiki has been sometimes found to increase the effectiveness of some medications while reducing their associated side effects. Neither myself nor any other Reiki practitioner will diagnose or prescribe anything for anybody, and any person suffering from a severe condition should definitely seek a conventional medical practitioner before consulting with a Reiki practitioner. |
