Dear Jer Thank you for the correspondence. Regarding your question, I would google -Reiki training and or classes in ( your city or town ) and see what comes up. Also check out local Reiki practioners, they may be able to help. I myself am a Healing Touch Practioner and you can get more info about that from the web or going to Healing Touch International. Keep me posted and I wish you well eresa

I stand corrected. It seems training or workshop are the terms used. But the point is to be able to offer this type of work to patients at the end of life in addition the the more traditional therapies. And yes I am familiar with meditation and metaphysics. Thankyou for taking the time to respond, I appreciate the feedback

Thanks for the reply No I do not consider myself psychic in the popular sense. I am a R.N. and a Healing Touch practioner. I plan to start taking Reiki classes in the near furture and would love to use energitic modalities to facilitate pain relief and other things in the hospice setting. I know there is a need and I feel that it would be beneficial for patient and family alike. I have been a nurse for 30 years and I think it would be nice to work in space where for once you did not have to be so concerned with life saving which often translates into litigation prevention etc, etc,but more concern with patient care and comfort in an unhurried,peaceful setting while at the same time helping the family. Is that a pipe dream or what? eresa "Don't find fault, find a solution"

Hi I'm new to allnurses and would like to hear from anyone who has used reiki, healing touch or any other energetic modality to facilitate pain management. Especially in kids and in the hospice setting. Thanks in advance Eresa
