Reiki is not a cure for any specific condition. Rather, it’s seen as a complementary treatment that promotes optimal balance of the body’s energy to encourage natural healing. Reiki is used to help relieve or manage a wide variety of conditions, including chronic illness, pain, stress, depression, anxiety, fatigue, blood pressure changes, and more.
Reiki has been shown to have many possible mental health benefits. Research from 2017 found that many psychological benefits stemming from Reiki’s effects on the parasympathetic nervous system include anxiety reduction, depression improvement, increased self-esteem, improved mood, an increase in positive emotions, and improved emotional regulation.
Although more large-scale research is needed, subsequent studies in 2019 and 2021 point to the effectiveness of Reiki as a complementary holistic tool for both physical and psychological well-being.
