What Is Pranic Energy Healing?

Pranic energy healing is a type of alternative medicine that is based on the belief that the life energy, or "prana," can be used to heal the body. This practice is said to date back to ancient times, and there is some evidence that it may have been used in traditional Chinese medicine.

Pranic energy healing is said to work by channeling the life energy into the body of the person who is being treated. The practitioner is said to be able to direct this energy to specific areas of the body where it is needed. This is said to promote healing by promoting the flow of energy in the body.

There is some scientific research that supports the idea that pranic energy healing can be effective. One study found that pranic energy healing was able to reduce pain and improve healing in rats. However, more research is needed to confirm these findings.

Pranic energy healing is generally considered safe. However, as with any type of alternative medicine, it is important to speak with a healthcare provider before beginning any treatment.
