My chakra balls are blue.
This has been offered at my Mom’s area hospital in northern Michigan (Catholic affiliated, no less) for years. Of course you can go to a convent in Adrian, MI, with its ashram sign out front.
One good thing: It will reduce the population of white LIBTARDS.
So the greatest medical delivery system in the world is going to shamans and witch doctors? The Elites will still get good medical care. As a peasant, we should be happy to see our lords and masters well cared for.
They are intent on destroying our way of life so we demand communism.
Evil, pure & simple.
What, no chicken bones & dancing witch doctors? Thats racist!!

...’prolly the best ‘BammyCare has to offer anyway.
Reiki is offered at the hospital where I work (in Libtard, CT) along with acupuncture and required bs diversity education once a year for the employees. Now, as a medical transcriptionist, I’m learning about the “qi” (chi) and men shen - whatever the hell that is and the other assorted Chinese terms. Oh yes, and we’re a “green” hospital - we have a “Green Team” to keep us in line. Pathetic.
“Green Team”, is that where the EcoNazis stand in the john dispensing out one piece of sandpaper asswipes to each customer ?
A recent study revealed that placebos are just as effective as real meds in relieving pain, even when the doctor told the patients they were taking placebos! We will be hearing a lot more of these specious studies as government health care kicks in, because we simply can’t afford real medication. That’s why ALL government employees should be forced to have the very same medical care, such as it will be, as we tax drones will have.
Can it be worse then the drugs pushed by the Hospitals and the inenpt Doctors performing surgeries.

Quackery, such as reiki, chiropractic, reflexology, etc., are cheap means to delay diagnosis and effective care. Occasionally, the patient will really save the carrier money and croak in the interval.
Evil western medicine bump
Under Obamacare if you are age 60+ New Age crystals and burning inscense in your navel and end of life counseling might be your only choices.

I have known two who died of rapidly advancing cancers.
One blamed the medical profession. Their treatments were killing her and alternative treatments were keeping her alive. The other kept complaining that she was “completely open” and yet she was in pain and very tired. Six weeks later, she died of pancreatic cancer.
One acupuncturist works part time at a regional Catholic hospital and supplements by working at various New Age practices. However, our local hospital expects alternative practitioners to pay for their treatment space, sheets, etc. They are then billed out under the gatekeeping physician and see much less than the billing statement. The area hospitals really prefer MDs to administer acupuncture and homeopathy. RNs can administer Reiki and Therapeutic Touch. Then, the patient’s insurance is billed for the time at their rates, while the homeopathy or herbal medicines, if *prescribed*, are out-of-pocket.
Some of the non-medically-trained practitioners are more than willing to sacrifice income for the prestige of working out of the hospital. Many RNs have complained about these practitioners who lack credentials. Then, these same RNs take the training themselves.
Personally, I am not aware of any legitimate codes for this stuff. But, they change all the time, so I may just not be up to speed.
