Pardon me for speaking up for those in the business of alternative health practices, but someone has to.

Both Reiki and BodyTalk can and do heal injuries at a distance, and spanning over past lives as well. I work at a clinic where both are practised DAILY (We do more BodyTalk here then we do massage) and no one has ever complained.

While I've never heard of this 'Balhaqueen', or whatever this chiropractor called his technique, there are practices out there that can and DO do what he says he can do.

If you want to know more about Reiki (which I practice) check out a reputable site like, uh, http://www.reiki.org . To learn more about BodyTalk, go to http://www.bodytalksystem.com .

Sorry for the rant, Eric.

Likewise.

Looking over his webpage, he seems very close to doing what is done in BodyTalk, except that BodyTalk can do more, with reliable results and has been carefully tested before any of their techniques have been taught to others, and that those who practice it need to take courses, and are very carefully regulated, much as any medical practitioner would be.

Part of me wants to take this guy's side, and forgive that maybe he just doesn't know how to explain himself properly, and part of me wants to wash my hands of him and declare him a loon.
