Reiki and Breast Cancer

I just read this article about Doctors using Reiki to help patients cope with Breast Cancer. As many of you know, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and has recently developed cancer again. Having seen my mother struggle through chemotherapy treatments then surgery, I know the hardships that a person with Breast Cancer and their family must go through. And I'm profoundly glad that Doctors are realizing that Eastern and Western Medicine should be combined to treat diseases.

As a Reiki Master, I'm overwhelmed with gratitude that I have this ability to share with others during their time of physical and mental pain. And as my business grows and I am able to helps others, I hope society continues to grow with me. In the future, hopefully society can come to an understanding that alternative/holistic medicine has worked for thousands of years and should be used in conjunction with modern medicine as a benefit to the patient.

Currently there are only a few studies that are trying to prove the benefits of combing Eastern and Western medicine. I believe this will change with the up coming energy shift we will be experiencing over the next year. We must as a society, not shy away from the things of the past but embrace them as a part of who we are as a culture.
