Healing Reiki

Is it necessary to use hand positions while doing Reiki self-healing?

Can I just use one hand position, say the front solar plexus and let it flow to wherever its required for abt an hour.?

Extra: I learnt Reiki 1, and 2 in September'09. And I have seen good results.

As with almost every so called "alternative" healing practices, and their religious cousins, there is always some ritualistic action that must be undertaken for the magic to work, or the god to listen to your prayers

Reiki...as an example of the "energy work" types of practices (others being Therapeutic Touch, and Wiccan healing) is no exception. The hand motions make no difference at all. Their entire purpose is distract the applicant and occupy them with a purposeless diversion, while their brains imagine something is happening. TT found this out many years ago, when their own studies found that it made no difference whether or not clients were touched during thee healing ceremony.

You may have "seen good results"....whatever that means...but that is only one persons subjective and I'm sorry to point out, gullible experience. What people usually report are vague and subjective things like decrease in pain, more relaxed etc....nothing that can be objectively measured. When energy practices are subjected to objective scientific study...all the reported benefits disappear.

So, You Can use whatever hand positions you like, you can even just pretend to use hand positions, or use the wrong hand positions. It makes no difference when you are engaged in a useless time waster like Reiki
