Why Reiki, Why Now
Patients are already asking for complementary, non-pharmacologic comfort options — and nurses are often the ones fielding that request without formal training in how to respond to it safely, ethically, and within scope of practice. This course closes that gap: not by teaching Reiki as a replacement for standard care, but as an adjunct — grounded in informed consent, objective documentation, and a clear understanding of where Reiki fits (and doesn't) in a clinical setting.
Reiki Level 1 and 2 introduces registered nurses to Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki as a complementary, non-diagnostic modality for patient comfort — covering its history, principles, and current evidence base in nursing practice.
