Strengthens Immune System
The immune system strengthens allowing the body to fight off illness easier.
First Aid
The wonderful benefit to using Reiki as a form of First Aid is that no matter where you are there is one tool you will always have with you—your hands. In a crisis hands, placed on a wound, a panicked head or a broken limb, will help calm the situation and at the same time support the system in coming around to a point of balance. Anecdotal evidence from Reiki practitioners claims that blood is stemmed, calm is invoked and pain is relieved when hands are brought into First Aid situations. More and more studies are being conducted into the efficacy of Reiki in an effort to support its vast amount of traditional evidence.
Reiki is obviously not comparable to, or to be used solely instead of, First Aid today but it is there to support you in times of acute need. If you fall over, for example, a by-stander may offer Reiki to you. This may reduce the degree of bruising, pain or emotional discomfort that may have resulted from your accident. You just need to be willing to accept the healing, even if it is while you are lying on the pavement waiting for the ambulance to arrive.
This is a case study from Your Reiki Treatment.
Reiki in a First Aid Situation
Jeremy’s son, James, had fallen off his pushbike and had a long, deep cut on his upper thigh. It was bleeding and his father could actually see that it was almost cut to the bone. He held a towel over the wound and performed Reiki while his wife called the ambulance. On arrival, the paramedics were surprised that the bleeding had stopped and said, “We don’t know what you did to stop the bleeding but, whatever it was, you did a good job!” After receiving stitches and lots of Reiki from his Dad, James recovered quickly.
