Reiki for Pain Management
​It was October of 2008.  I'd been trained to Reiki I for less than a month when I underwent surgery to biopsy two cycsts in my right breast.  Once the nurses had prepped me for surgery, I asked if anyone on staff at the hospital was Reiki trained.  One of the nurses called the chaplain who came and offered Reiki while I was waiting.  Following surgery, I opted out of the pain medication that was prescribed, and managed the pain with Reiki self-care alone.  I'm not one to take medication as a rule, but the pain of surgery can be a different story.  I was pleased with the results:  not only was the pain during recovery very manageable, but the scars are almost nonexistent.  There is hardly a trace of the incisions, which I contribute in part to a fantastic surgeon and in part to Reiki healing.
