Key Points
- People give and receive Reiki for various health purposes.
- It is not fully known whether Reiki influences health and how it
might do so. The existence of ki has not been proven scientifically.
- The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine
(NCCAM) is sponsoring studies to find out more about Reiki's effects,
how it works, and diseases and conditions for which it may be most
helpful.

If you are considering or using Reiki or any other CAM therapy,
