I am both are usuri and Corunna Reiki master for many years. I resent the fact that you referred to us other Reiki Masters as sham reiki. You’re putting every Reiki master into that category since they have not taken your program. I am a very caring and successful healer and I’ve worked with cancer patients without taking your program.
The Center for Reiki Research values and respects all Reiki practitioners regardless of their lineage or organizational affiliation.
Because of the often-subtle nature of Reiki-induced outcomes, study design is enhanced by the inclusion of a placebo control in addition to a no-treatment control. The inclusion of a placebo control, or sham Reiki treatment (e.g., a person who is untrained in energy healing assumes the hand positions of a Reiki practitioner but does not actually deliver Reiki energy to the participant), allows the researcher to determine if the observed effects go beyond those caused by the participants simply being touched. In cases where Reiki is performed without touch, the sham condition can help to determine whether the belief that they are undergoing treatment actually produces healing effects in the participants.
