More from my Isis booklet.
"Reiki treatments are simple and gentle healing techniques. We have beautiful safe spaces here at Isis Crystals in which treatments are caried out. Reiki healing energy can help to heal many physical injuries and symptoms as well as emotional traumas and wobbles. It has a profound effect on your physical health and well being. Reiki works to bring about a balance within the whole person. Here at Isis Crystals, treatments are in the hands or our experienced Reiki Therapists. The sessions last for about an hour and cost just £30/35."
Isn't this just as fraudulent as Psychic Surgery"?
Yes, I'd say so, and potentially as dangerous for people who are seriously ill. It seems to me to be like non-evasive [sic] surgery without the sleight of hand.![]()
Reiki is so mainstream now it is unbelievable.
Go to any spa and you'll find it on the list of 'treatments'.
Probably the easiest 30 minutes of any 'therapist' at one of these establishments.![]()
I agree, FSOTM. The local council here runs health type promotions and a lot of this type of thing is now included - rieki and aromatherapy and stuff. It is absolutely shocking
I just can't believe people accept stuff like this.
REIKI
oReiki (pronounced Ray-key) is a Japanese word meaning Universal Life Energy, an energy which is all around us.
Natural Healing
Reiki is the name given to a system of natural healing which evolved in Japan from the experience and dedication of Dr Mikao Usui (d. 1926). Fired by a burning question, Dr Usui was inspired to develop this healing system from ancient teachings after many years of study, research and meditation. He spent the rest of his life practising and teaching Reiki. Today Reiki continues to be taught by Reiki Masters who have trained in the tradition passed down from Master to student.
There is no belief system attached to Reiki so anyone can receive or learn to give a Reiki treatment, the only prerequisite is the desire to be healed.
o
A Reiki Treatment
The method of receiving a Reiki treatment from a practitioner is a very simple process. The recipient simply lies on a couch and relaxes. If they are unable to lie down the treatment can be given in a sitting position, the main thing is for the recipient to be as comfortable as possible. There is no need to remove any clothing as Reiki will pass through anything, even plaster casts. The practitioner gently places their hands non-intrusively in a sequence of positions which cover the whole body. The whole person is treated rather than specific symptoms. A full treatment usually takes 1 to 1½ hours with each position held for several minutes.
o
Which conditions can Reiki help?
It is possible to heal at any level of being: physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. Acute injuries can be helped to heal very quickly but more chronic illness takes longer. In some cases such as terminal illness, there is not enough time for the progress of the disease to be reversed. However, in such cases there is usually great benefit and enhancement of the quality of life giving a sense of peace and acceptance during the time remaining.
Reiki healing can be given anywhere at any time as no special equipment is needed. The practitioner is a channel which the energy is drawn through by the need or imbalance in the recipient. Neither person has to use any effort of will or concentration during this process.
As running water smoothes the jagged edges of a rock until it is small enough to roll away, Reiki flows to the areas of need, soothing pain and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself. Reiki restores balance in one's life.
Reiki supports all forms of treatment both orthodox and complementary.

DO YOU HAVE A TRUE ANGEL STORY?
Well do you ?
I thought I did, but it turned out they were flying saucers, and that it was all because the US government wanted me to think angels.![]()

So for two hundred and sixty quid and a two day course I can set myself up as a Level 2 Reiki instructor? (Sorry about the absence of a pound sign but it has mysteriously disappeared from my computer).
Thirty quid per hour for consultations. Let's say three consultations a day, five days a week - that's four hundred and fifty quid. Less tax, of course, assuming that I don't keep my newfound skills a secret from the taxman.
Holy alternative medicine fraud, Batman, it's a license to print money!
And I see the gangsta cat is back again, Bindeweede.

Aye. But you have to keep a straight face
Oh wait......how about we have laughing buddha reiki? I think I might be on to something...
Julia
I'm not sure you would believe the stuff in this booklet I picked up on Wednesday. Did you know that "Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is an emotional version of acupuncture, but without the needles. Instead we tap on acupuncture points whilst using related phrases to the challenge identified."
I could go on for ages.
Related phrases? I am intrigued now.
*muses*
"pull yourself together"
"If you don't stop snivelling I will give you something to cry for"
Is it that kind of thing?
Fiona,
I have no idea. Here is more crap............
"EFT is a perfect partner to bring us into harmony with The Law of Attraction. It can help by gently and effectively resolving these hurdles and put us into the right frequency to attract better health, relationships or finances."
"We have the power to create our own reality". AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!
