  If you are less stressed, more relaxed, have stable vitals regularly, then you are more likely to have a healthy heart too.
  
  Being less stressed is directly proportional to an improved health overall. Those that use Reiki repeatedly tend to have lower blood pressure and slower heart rates. Hence, it would only make sense that heart health is better in people who practice Reiki.

• Reiki can be used for pain relief.
  Reiki has been studied on migraine sufferers to cancer patients, and is found to be helpful in decreasing pain levels time and time again! One such study done by authors Singg and Dressen back in 1998 examined the effects of Reiki on cancer patients. The patients experienced less pain after the treatment, along with a decreased level of depression and stress. Because of the pain being subsided, they saw an improvement in their hours of sleep every night.
