Therapeutic touch

In case you are interested about energy healing, in this case, Reiki, here I show a true story of somebody. He is a Therapeutic Touch practitioner and has turned a few skeptics into true believers, he is proud to say he loves practicing Reiki healing.

I think that's great. It's something that I would be interested in learning if I had the time and resources for training. I think "touch" is one of the greatest things in this world and most overlooked when it comes to well- being.

There is a site that says you can learn Reiki online for free. However, although this free training and attunement on the internet may work, I personally would advise that you're best to find a Reiki master to be trained and attuned one to one.

Let me explain about Reiki and give a little background info so that you can make your own judgment, but what I am going to explain is based on explanation my friend gave to me. She has been trained and attuned in Reiki and finds it to be a really strange phenomena.

The 'attunement' that she mentions is when the ability to be a channel of the Reiki energy is passed on from the Master to the person being trained. What happens is that in effect they give you a more powerful treatment. Some of it seems like some kind of ritual or rain dance and involves touching your feet hands and head etc.

She was quite skeptical that it would work after this attunement (she is a scientist!). But all she can

say is that, to her amazement, she now gets a warm, tingling sensation in the palms of her hands when she places them on her body. It sounds crazy, she knows, but that's the way it feels.

So how is this attunement done over the internet? As well as being able to treat people by contact, you are also said to be able to 'send' energy to someone a great distance away. She has no experience of whether or not this works or not, but people she has spoken to say that it does.

There is a web page claims to do the attunement like this - they probably do it by using your name and address and doing the attunement on a dummy. This may work but if done from a distance the attunement may not work as well. Also she thinks you need to speak to someone one to one and you will be bound to have lots of questions to ask after the attunement. It can have a very profound effect on people and lots of questions arise. Her Reiki Master lives locally and she can ring her go or go and see her. Also, it does help to actually see the hand positions used rather than just on the web or in a book.
