World Reiki Research
Science & Reiki database
Clinical research is important in science and medicine to evaluate the effect of a therapy or treatment protocol. The effects of the Reiki method have been studied using the methods of science in relation to specific conditions or more generally. The improvement in the patient's quality of life following Reiki treatments is a parameter that has also attracted medical research. Aspects such as the integration of the Reiki method in support of medical care have also been a focus of research within medical science.
The aim of this “Science & Reiki database” is to facilitate the search for scientific articles. It compiles all the clinical studies on the Reiki method and is regularly updated. It is aimed at both researchers and the general public interested in the science of Reiki. It also enables us to analyse the evolution of Reiki research in the world of science. For example, it shows that Reiki research has nearly tripled in 10 years and that Brazil and Turkey become some of the biggest contributors.
We would be delighted to hear from you if you find it useful for your project. Please submit to research@reiki.world any report, study and article for review and inclusion in this database. Any external link to the present “Science & Reiki database” is welcome.
