The research was a double-blind, pre-test-post-test randomized controlled experimental study. The data were collected using Information Form, Wong-Baker FACES Pain Scale (W-BPS), Vital Signs Follow-up Form, and The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) 3.0 Cancer Module.

Reiki was performed to the Reiki group for 20โ€“30 minutes once per day, for 3 consecutive days and pseudo-Reiki was applied to the pseudo-Reiki group by an independent nurse during the same period. Reiki did not affect the vital signs of the children but was effective in reducing pain and increasing the quality of life compared with the pseudo-Reiki and control groups.

Noting the study's rigorous design and its evidence-based rationale for incorporating Reiki treatments more broadly into cancer care practices, CRR reviewers scored this paper, published in the ๐˜Œ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ ๐˜‘๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ญ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜–๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜จ๐˜บ ๐˜•๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ, highly (Very Good/Excellent) using the CRR Touchstone evaluation process.

We are delighted to share more Reiki research with you.

This newly published 2026 study looked at 1,284 Reiki sessions across the United States and explored not only how people reported feeling before and after Reiki, but also what they actually experienced during their Reiki sessions.

Hereโ€™s some of what the researchers found:

Positive emotional experiences during Reiki were associated with improved wellbeing and reduced anxiety.

Physical or bodily sensations during Reiki were associated with greater pain relief.

Emotional release was associated with improved wellbeing through reductions in anxiety.

Reductions in pain and anxiety also appeared to play an important role in the improvements people reported in their overall wellbeing.

What we found particularly interesting about this study is that it looks at the experience of receiving Reiki itself and how those experiences may relate to changes in physical and emotional symptoms.

Of course, this is one study and Reiki research needs to be considered as part of the wider evidence base. But it is another interesting contribution to the growing research exploring Reiki, and one we wanted to share with you.

NEW REIKI RESEARCH
Reiki & Chronic Knee Osteoarthritis

We get so excited when new research into Reiki and healthcare is published, and weโ€™re going to be sharing new research, insights and developments regularly to help build awareness of what is being discovered about Reiki in medicine. ๐Ÿ’™

Hereโ€™s one that caught our attentionโ€ฆ

A new randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving 164 adults with chronic knee osteoarthritis found that Reiki significantly improved symptoms compared with a waitlist control.

55% of Reiki participants experienced a clinically meaningful reduction in symptoms, a reduction of more than 30%.

The results were comparable to mindfulness meditation.

Participants received just four 30-minute sessions.

The study also included a sham Reiki (Feiki) group, adding another important piece of evidence to the growing body of Reiki research.

We love seeing research like this emerging, and weโ€™ll continue to share the latest studies and insights as we work to support greater understanding of Reiki within healthcare and integrative medicine.
