Our Therapies in the News

If you are like me, you are interested in news coverage of Reiki and Healing Touch. I love reading stories about the power and versatility of these modalities.

Discover Magazine, 4/11/2022 – Grappling With the Science of Touch-Based Healing Practices.

This journalist mom shares how Healing Touch soothed her 1 yr old son when nothing else could. This well-written article discusses the slow rate of acceptance by many medical professions of these therapies, and the evidence, including several Healing Touch studies that have been published in mainstream journals. A follow-up article was published in Unity Magazine earlier this year.

Washington Independent, 10/14/2022 – 3 Celebrities Share How They Incorporate Reiki Into Their Daily Lives. 

  • Christina Aguilera, singer, actor, and television host used Reiki to help her lose weight by improving her mood and encouraging her to adhere to a healthier eating schedule.
  • Mehmet Oz, MD, surgeon, author, and TV host, often hires Reiki Masters to help his surgery patients relax and feel more at ease. Well-known Reiki Masters Pamela Miles and Raven Keyes have both provided Reiki in his operating room during surgery.
  • Gwyneth Paltrow, actress, diet writer, and businesswoman used Reiki to help her heal after a divorce.

We know these therapies are effective because we see the positive results every day in the LifeSpark program. Slowly the perceptions are changing and more and more hospitals are integrating them into their supportive care programs. It is great to see articles such as these that share their impact with a wider audience.
