Insofar as PD goes, when my meds just don't want to kick in I can ask my wife for fifteen minutes of Reiki and I am "on". In fact, I don't think that it has ever failed to do that - at least not that I remember.

Like Jaye, i don't know what it does but it does something for sure. On at least two occasions over the last three or four years I have felt peristalisis-like, whole body waves of energy sweeping over me with such intensity that it was alarming. Almost enough to make me get up off the table though not quite. Weirdest thing I ever experienced without an illegal substance being involved

Again, there are some parts that I just don't buy. But there's something there.
