Reiki Energy Medicine: Enhancing the Healing Process by Alice Moore, RN, BS, Reiki Master Hartford Hospital Dept.Of Integrative Medicine, Hartford, CT
Reiki Energy Medicine: Enhancing the Healing Process by Alice Moore, RN, BS, Reiki Master Hartford Hospital Dept.of Integrative Medicine, Hartford, CT With increasing frequency and confidence, we speak of Energy Medicine (also known as “energy work”) as if it was a new form of therapy for our patients’ ailments. Not so. Thousands of years ago ancient cultures understood intuitively what scientific research and practitioners world-wide are confirming today about the flow (or lack of flow) of energy in the body and, how the use of energy therapies can enhance the healing process. As well known medical surveys report approximately 50% of the American public using some form of complementary or alternative therapy, “energy work” is among the ten most frequently used. Research has shown that these therapies (often called “mind-body-spirit techniques”) can help decrease anxiety, diminish pain, strengthen the immune system, and accelerate healing, whether by simply inducing the “relaxation response” (and reversing the “stress response” and subsequent impacts on the body, illness, and disease) or, by more complex mechanisms. When patients choose these options, there is often a greater sense of participation in healing and restoration of health and, patient satisfaction is often increased in the process. It was with this understanding that Women’s Health Services at Hartford Hospital (in collaboration with Alice Moore, RN, BS, Reiki Master and Volunteer Services) began to integrate Reiki healing touch (one of the most well known forms of “energy work” ) on the inpatient gynecological surgical unit in 1997. Patients have been very pleased to be offered an option that is so relaxing and helps decrease their anxiety as well as their discomfort. -

ABSTRACT Reiki is one of the complementary and alternative medicine modalities which have been accepted and appreciated, globally. Many evidence based studies have validated its role in cancer. Reiki can play a major role in changing the patient’s outlook towards life and increasing the patient’s ability as well as willingness to comply with physician’s instructions and adhere to treatment protocols. The goal of Reiki treatments is to strengthen the flow of energy through these blocked or disturbed pathways, thus decreasing pain and enhancing the body’s natural ability to fight illnesses and heal itself. It combats the nausea caused from chemotherapy. One of the major criticism is lack of scientific foundation. There has been effort to collaborate conventional and complementary therapies to improve the quality of future research. -
Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome (AFS) 1
Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome (AFS) 1 Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome (AFS) Hype, Denial & Reality By Verne Varona “Fatigue makes cowards of us all. “ —Vince Lombardi Everything exists in polarity, from all aspects of observable life to opinions on health. If you research alternative medical information on Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome (AFS), you’ll find a plethora of writing about how pervasive these symptoms are and numerous ways to diagnose what alternative calls a, “crippling and devastating condition.” Yet, to most conventional western medicine advocates, Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome is a “fake” disease. The most common symptoms of AFS are: • Excessive fatigue or exhaustion • Not feeling rested after sufficient sleep • Insomnia • Inability to lose weight • Poor recovery from injury, illness, stress or exercise • Cravings for salted and/or sweet foods • Low blood pressure • Low libido • Excessive thirst and frequent urination • Caffeine dependency • Low blood sugar (excessive hunger) or, lack of appetite • Irritability, restlessness, impatience To most alternative opinions, the underlying cause of adrenal fatigue is continuous unresolved stress, which can be emotional, mental, physical or from external reasons, such as; deficient diet, toxicity from heavy metal exposure, extreme shock and emotional trauma, excessive exercise, physical trauma, working too hard without enough rest, indulgence in stimulants (caffeine, tobacco), narcotics, excessive use of cortisone therapy, insufficient sleep or any infectious condition. The “Fake Disease” — Conventional Medicine’s Denial of AFS According to the Sciencebasedmedicine.org site: Copyright 2015, Verne Varona Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome (AFS) 2 “There’s no entry in Dorland’s medical dictionary, nor does the ICD classify it as a medical condition. Pubmed lists only one relevant paper which is a review by two naturopaths, and published in the Alternative Medicine Review. -
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder & Adrenal Fatigue
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder & Adrenal Fatigue R. J. Oenbrink DO Revised 4/6/10 The concept of PTSD has been around for years. In WW I it was known as “shell shock”. The latest name evolved after the Vietnam era with the US Military. This is widely believed to be a psychological/psychiatric problem. The relationship between our brains and our hormone or endocrine system has long been acknowledged and explored. We understand that the hypothalamus, at the base of the brain has intricate connections with the pituitary or “master gland” that coordinates the entire endocrine system of the body with numerous interconnections between the two. Symptoms of PTSD include stress, anxiety, fear, flashbacks of traumatic event(s), nightmares, sensation of intense physical reactions to reminders of the event such as rapid heart rate, breathing, perspiration, nausea, muscle tension among others. Low adrenal function is usually missed by common blood tests. A basic cortisol level is useful as is an ACTH stimulation test to determine if there is complete failure of adrenal function. The more subtle insufficiency of the adrenal glands requires different testing. Salivary testing of cortisol & DHEA levels can help uncover this condition. Salivary and urine testing gather information on agents that change frequently in their blood levels; pooled levels over time are provided. Low DHEA/Cortisol ratio can indicate a physiologic response to stress with shifting of the steroidogenic pathway away from DHEA and toward cortisol. High ratios reflect an abnormal physiological -
How to Set up and Use a Reiki Crystal Healing Grid
HOW TO SET UP AND USE A REIKI CRYSTAL HEALING GRID Crystal grids are another excellent tool to use. I strongly suggest that you research further into this topic if you are intending to use this method. Crystal Connection and Windows of Light, by Randal Baer are excellent for further research. There are two crystal grid structures that I have found that work excellent with Reiki: The Star of David, and Double Star of David. Both are used in the same way. The first is a layout of six perimeter crystals, the second has twelve. I typically use single terminated clear quartz for the perimeter stones. Both layouts also have a crystal, or a series of crystals located, in the middle of the layout. The terminated ends from the perimeter crystals are pointed in towards the center stone. Crystal spheres work the best in the center of the grid, though I have also used a double terminated or quartz cluster for the center crystal. These are very tricky however, and I would not recommend using them unless you work with someone who can see their energy and set it up for you. A charging crystal is also used, though I have found that when I am away for extended periods, I can use the distant healing technique to charge and empower the whole grid. Inside the grid, your goals or pictures (with affirmations) are placed. I keep a picture of myself, with several affirmations on the back, under the center crystal and place the others around it, within the field that is produced by the perimeter stones. -
Your Adrenal & Thyroid Health
Dr. Frank King Join The Healing Revolution® and awaken your personal empowerment. How You Can Monitor & Manage Your Adrenal & Thyroid Health by DR. FRANK KING 0419 A New Global Health Crisis The Industrial Revolution gave civilization many advancements, but it also brought widespread pollution. Toxins, stress, imbalanced diets, and sedentary lifestyles have wreaked havoc on health. Today, so many people suffer from chronic disease, I call it the greatest pandemic the world has ever seen. Yet there are many things people can do to avoid that fate, and to even reverse it if that’s their current situation. Canaries in a Coal Mine Long ago, coal miners deep below the earth’s surface carried a caged canary as a monitor for toxic fumes they might not detect. The birds were an early alarm system, showing severe symptoms (and sometimes death) on exposure, which alerted the miners to the danger. Our bodies also have an early warning system. It’s called “symptoms.” Symptoms are your body’s way of communicating with you. And the adrenal and thyroid glands are wonderful early warning systems if we know how to monitor them. They can show us very quickly when we are out of balance and need to pay attention. 2 .com Adrenal & Thyroid Health, Dr. Frank King Adrenals & Thyroid – Symptoms of Imbalance Statistics show that 28% of the population suffers Most people don’t know where the thyroid or from diagnosed hypothyroidism. They’re given adrenal glands are located, what they do, or what medication and told there’s no cure… and that they’ll symptoms appear when they are out of balance. -
CONTACT THERAPEUTIC TOUCH on the HEALING RATE of FULL Tmckness DERMAL WOUNDS
Experilllelltal THE EFFECT OF NON· CONTACT THERAPEUTIC TOUCH ON THE HEALING RATE OF FULL TmCKNESS DERMAL WOUNDS Daniel P. Wirth, M.S., J.D. ABSTRACf The effect of Noncontact Therapeutic Touch (NClD on the rate ofsurgical wound healing was examined ina double-blind study. Full-thickness dermal wounds were incised on the lateral deltoid region using a skin punch biopsy instrument, on healthy subjects randomly assigned to treatment or control groups. Subjects were blinded both to group assignment and to the true nature of the active treatment modality in order to control placebo and expectation effects. Incisions were dressed with gas-permeable dressings, and wound surface areas were measured on Days 0, 8, and 16 using a direct tracing method and digitization system. Active and control treatments were comprised ofdaily sessions offive minutes of exposure to a hidden Therapeutic Touch practitioner or to sham exposure. Results showed that treated subjects experienced a significant acceleration in the rate of wound healing as compared to non-treated subjects at day8 (Mann-Whitney Ui Z =-5.675; n =44; p<.OOI; 2 tailed), and at day 16 (X2 =16.847, df =1; p<.OOI). Statistical comparisons are dominated bythe complete healing of13 of 23 treated subjectsvs. Oof21 controlsubjects by day 16. Placebo effects and the possible influences of suggestion and expectation of healing were eliminated byisolating the subjects from the Therapeutic Touch practitioner, by blinding them to the nature of the therapy during the study, and by the use of an independent experimenter who was blinded to the nature ofthe therapy. The findings of this study demonstrate, at least, the potential for NCIT in the healing of full-thickness human dermal wounds. -
