Reikinin Cerrahi Bakımda Kullanımı

Özet

Enerji terapi yöntemlerinden biri olan Reiki’nin kelime anlamı evrensel yaşam enerjisidir. Enerji kanallarında meydana gelen tıkanıklık, enerji akışını bozarak vücutta fizyolojik ve psikolojik değişikliklere yol açar. Reiki eğitimi almış uygulayıcı, fiziksel olarak bireyin yanında bulunarak ya da uzaktan reiki enerjisi göndererek enerji akışını yeniden düzenlemeye çalışır. Reiki sağlığın korunması ve geliştirilmesinde, hastalıkların tedavisi ve önlenmesinde, yaşam kalitesinin artırılmasında kullanılmaktadır. Yan etkisi olmayan, uygulaması kolay, etkili ve güvenilir bir tedavi yöntemidir. Literatürde Reiki'nin cerrahi girişim sonrası ağrı, yaşamsal bulgular, anksiyete ve konfor düzeyi üzerindeki etkilerini inceleyen çalışmalar bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmalarda Reiki'nin ağrı ve anksiyeteyi azaltmada, konforu ve yaşamsal bulguları artırmada olumlu etkileri olduğu bildirilmektedir. Kanıt düzeyi yüksek olan bu çalışmaların sayısı sınırlı olduğundan, daha geniş örneklemli ve kanıt düzeyi yüksek çalışmaların planlanması gerekmektedir.

Reiki is one of the energy therapy methods and literally means universal life energy. Blockage in the energy channels disrupts the flow of energy and causes both physiological and psychological changes in the body. Reiki trained practitioner tries to reorganize the energy flow by being physically present with the individual or by sending reiki energy remotely. Reiki is used in the protection and promotion of health, treatment and prevention of diseases, and improvement of quality of life. It is an effective and reliable treatment method that has no side effects and is easy to apply.  There are studies in the literature examining the effects of Reiki on post-surgical pain, vital signs, anxiety and comfort levels. Since the number of these studies with high level of evidence is limited, studies with larger samples and high level of evidence should be planned.
