Victoria Dalgleish – Mainstream Reiki

On my recent travels to Dallas I was looking into whether Reiki was practiced in US Hospitals. I found a lady Lucy Aguirre-Kelly at Baylor, head of the Behavioral Team. Within her team of Occupational and Physio Therapists they use the following methods of non-drug options and complementary approaches along side their medical disciplines;  Reiki, Reflexology, Breathing Techniques, Aroma Blends, Music, Dancing, Art and Journaling. I felt a connection to Lucy in the desire to have the humanness, touch and feelings addressed in an often stressful hospital environment.

Scientific research at Harvard Medical School and other scientific research have validated the positive effects of these non-invasive techniques.¹
