Two Bears,

I join Katlaughing in thanking you for the links. Nothing new so far for me from these links: announcements of studies, advertising, simle pre-post tests with subjective variables not potperly reported, nothing at all that could convince me yet that there is something worth looking at. But I found this quote in your link:

No high quality studies have thus far been published on the efficacy of reiki for pain

See, that's what I was saying all the time, so I guess we agree?
