REIKI:
This simple, non-invasive healing system works with the Higher Self of the Receiver to promote health and well being of the entire physical, emotional and psychic body. Therefore it is truly a system of attaining and promoting wholeness of Mind, Body and Spirit. Reiki is a specific type of subtle energy work in which healing is performed by the touch of the hands, allowing the flow of the energy from a limitless source (God Force) to the patient via the Reiki practitioner. It is extremely powerful, yet gentle energy that can be easily channelled to yourself and others, just by intention. When it is combined with the sincere Desire of the Healee, who is willing to effect a cleansing within their emotional and spiritual consciousness, a total healing can occur.

Etc. Treatment for chronic pain using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
Main target areas:
Depressive, unrealistic, negative thoughts
Unhelpful beliefs, fears, attitudes
Inactivity
Analysing and questioning thoughts and finding more realistic and positive alternatives is of central importance in cognitive therapy. Thoughts, memories and emotions can influence the way we experience pain physiologically. Thoughts affect the way we feel and feelings/emotions affect our behaviour. Fear of more pain and depressive thoughts lead often to inactivity, and inactivity results in physical deconditioning and more depressive mood. Planning in activities and exercises that gradually increase in strength and duration will lead to a resumption of normal activities which will add to the patient’s sense of normalcy and wellbeing and so increase his/her quality of life. Psychoeducation
Information about how physiological and psychological factors interact in experiencing pain, and advice how to be better prepared to cope with the presented illness. Relaxation/Visualisation
Relaxation techniques are an important part of pain treatment as they help reduce stress. Deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation help to relax the body. Guided imagery and visualisation help to focus on positive mental pictures, acceptance, and awareness of here-and-now, which allow mind to relax, be more open and positive, and so reduce the impact of stress. Defining goals and steps to reach them
It is important to plan forward and define realistic goals together with the patient. The goals can be short term and/or long term. The actions/activities to reach the goals will need to be realistic and well defined in detail. Planning forward and achieving goals brings to the patient new hope, determination and greater belief in oneself. Problem solving skills
Problem solving skills means developing skills/strategies to be more able to deal with various problems/conflicts in everyday life. This will help the patient to become more independent and assertive, and regain a sense of more control and pleasure in life.
