Energy healing, or energy medicine, is a way to help the body, mind, and emotions stay balanced and healthy. Instead of focusing on physical symptoms like regular medicine, it works with the invisible energy field that surrounds and flows through us. We feel strong, clear-minded, and emotionally stable when this energy flows smoothly. But when it gets blocked, we might feel stressed, tired, or sick.

Nikola Tesla, one of the greatest inventors in history, once said, “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.” Everything around us, including our bodies, is made of energy vibrating at different frequencies. Scientists have been exploring this idea for years:

• David Bohm’s research shows that everything in the universe is connected through one big energy field, just like how energy healing works to balance the body’s natural energy.
• Nassim Haramein’s studies suggest that everything constantly interacts through invisible energy waves, meaning our bodies exchange energy with the world around us.
• Rupert Sheldrake’s theory says that our bodies remember patterns of energy, which is why energy healing can help fix problems by reminding the body how to heal itself.
• Max Planck, a famous physicist, believed everything starts with consciousness (our thoughts and awareness), not just physical matter. This explains why our emotions and thoughts affect our energy and overall health.

How Energy Healing Works

Our bodies run on energy. We get energy from food, water, sunlight, and the air we breathe. But energy also flows through us in invisible pathways, connecting our mind, emotions, and physical body. Ancient cultures have always known this and called it life force energy.

When we experience stress, sadness, or trauma, this energy flow can get blocked or disrupted. For example, when we feel anxious or overwhelmed for a long time, our bodies might react with tension, headaches, or even high blood pressure. The energy isn’t flowing properly, and it affects how we feel mentally and physically.

Energy healing removes these blocks and helps the energy flow freely again so the body can heal and function at its best. It can help:

• Recharge our energy levels and fight fatigue
• Reduce stress and anxiety
• Improve focus and emotional balance
• Support the body’s natural healing ability

By working with energy centres (chakras), our aura, and invisible energy pathways, energy healing helps the body return to its natural balanced state.

Energy Healing & Science Working Together

Energy healing might seem mysterious, but it connects with modern science. Tesla’s ideas about energy and vibration, Bohm’s theory of a connected universe, and Sheldrake’s research on energy memory all support the idea that we are more than just physical beings; we are made of energy.

Scientists are now studying biofield science, sound healing, and quantum physics to understand how energy affects our health. As research continues, it’s becoming clearer that energy healing is not just a belief, it’s a real way to help our bodies and minds stay strong, balanced, and healthy.

Reiki, a form of energy healing, has been increasingly integrated into hospital settings to complement traditional medical treatments. A 2010 study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology evaluated the effects of Reiki on patients recovering from acute coronary syndrome. The study found that Reiki significantly improved patients’ emotional states and increased heart-rate variability, indicating reduced stress levels.

In 2017, a comprehensive review of Reiki studies concluded that Reiki is a safe and gentle healing modality. The review provided evidence that Reiki is more effective than a placebo in activating the parasympathetic nervous system, leading to reduced heart rate, lower blood pressure, and increased heart rate variability. These physiological changes are associated with decreased stress and improved overall well-being.

The integration of Reiki into hospital care is further exemplified by programs like the one at Upstate University Hospital’s Spiritual Care Department, which offers Reiki to patients and staff to promote relaxation and healing.
