Investigating perceived stress and pain reduction following brief Reiki sessions in high-stress communities: an exploratory study

This study has provided valuable insights into how participants perceive the impact of Reiki in reducing both stress and pain levels among individuals in high-stress communities who received a single, ten-minute Reiki session. Sessions took place in a variety of non-clinical settings. More rigorous research is needed to evaluate the impact of short Reiki sessions in non-clinical settings, and repeated sessions over time.
