Energy Medicine - Why so many "schools"
Energy medicines generally seem to offer to balance, harmonize and transform the body's energy processes. But why are there so many different "schools" of what is basically the old Oral Roberts "laying-on-of-hands" technique? I'm guessing money might have something to do with it. It's probably easier to compete in the teaching of energy medicine field if you can teach your own "patented" technique.
The Energy Medicine Institute
Reiki
Vortex healing
qi gong
Quantum Touch
Pranic Healing
Therapeutic Touch
Johrei
Healing Touch
Polarity Therapy
Here is a list of "Scientific" journals in which energy medicine researchers publish their scientific evidence. It's hard to imagine any reputable scientist wanting to be on the editorial board of these journals.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine
Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine
Homeopathy
Journal of New Energy
Journal of the BioElectroMagnetics Institute
Journal of Scientific Exploration
Journal of the International Society of Life Information Science
Sometimes there can be "equipment" involved in energy medicine. This is good because it gives the "school" another means of making money. Above is the scientology "e meter".
Speaking of scientology....they've got the energy medicine practice down pat. Declare it a religion, make money and pay no taxes.
