Title: energy healing and the future of medicine
Post by: Vivek Golikeri on Aug 13 15 01:51
In the future, holistic healing will modify western medicine and blend into it like a stream merging with a large river. Already, reiki is being used in hospitals. Dolores Krieger invented therapeutic touch which, ironically, is non-touching application of energy. Johrei is strictly non-touching. It was begun in Japan by Mokichi Okada, lovingly known as Meishu Sama by his followers.

Once dismissed as mumbo-jumbo, holistic healing is increasingly being given a try by more and more people in the United States and canada.

Sounds like bullshit to me. Buzzword-laden bullshit.

Have you ever tried it? Don't just write something off before investigating it.

I've never tried homeopathy, but I know that's bullshit too.

Contrary to popular belief, you don't always have to try something to be qualified to call "bullshit" on it.
