RSD and Reiki - Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Message Board

Hi,

A friend of mine did some Reiki on my left knee, where I have RSD. As soon as she put her hand on my RSD knee and started Reiki, I felt immediately better. It was like my RSD pain had gone to sleep. What a great feeling!

Have you ever tried Reiki for your RSD pain and other pains? Did it work for you? How did it help you?

Thanks.

I have used other forms of hands on healing similiar to Reiki and yes I felt much better. It was really expensive though. I also have had some minor relief with the use of magnets. I have magnetic insoles in the shoes I wear around the house and strangely enough they make a difference.

Peace
Just for today....

Hi, everybody

Mimi, I do not exactly know what Reiki is. All I know is that it is some type of hands-on healing, where someone put their hands on a body part that has a problem. I think, but I am not sure, that the person who puts their hands on your sick or injured body part(s) is trying to give some type of energy to it so that maybe it will heal or get better.

Cathy, what kinds of hands-on healing similar to Reiki have you used? I am glad they helped you feel better. The person who did Reiki for me was a classmate. She put her hands on my RSD knee during class. Fortunately, she did not charge me. I know very well how expensive Reiki and similar treatments can be. I wonder why.

I am interested in magnets but it seems to me they do not work because I am not using them the right way. I would need someone to help me get powerful magnets and explain to me how ot use them appropriately.
