The girl fell from a vehicle and her ankle was broken. I applied reiki instantly on the spot, and after about 1/2 an hour the pain subsided and the girl was taken to a local nursing home. But that was a long time ago! I have learnt and seen a lot of things on reiki, and now cant say for sure that applying reiki to people in critical conditions is advisable. I have seen conditions getting worse after applying reiki and in some cases even applying it multiple times brought no changes. I do not buy into the usual argument put forth by reiki masters that conditions get worse only because the toxins are getting cleared from the body. Relying or asking someone to rely on something which has no concrete medical evidence of efficacy, especially during a delicate or critical phase can be harmful and should be avoided. Dear Dr. Brown,

As a Reike Master I have treated a number of individual as they lay sick in the hospital. In one such case a woman patient of mine called to have me treat her father who was involved a in a terrible auto accident. Whem I go to the hospital I was in shock. He was motionless and practically unconscious. I did not want to pass energy to him but his daughter begged me to treat him. I did so reluctantly, thinking that it was a waste of time. The very next day she called to have me treat him again, she was so happy after my initial treatment he opened his eyes and motioned to her to come closer. He asked her what ws it that I did to him . Although he looked out of it he felt the energy of the Reike treatment. Reiki may not be a cure all, but we cannot diminish the value of its application.

Its suggested that reiki be given only after the person has recovered health to some extent post surgery.
