Default Healing?

I would like to know how the people of this forum feel about energy healing/ faith healing etc.

Also would you would like to see it offered in hospitals as a complementary therapy? Just a little background on me, I’m currently a Reiki 2 in the Sa Sekhem Sahu tradition and I also practice Quantum Touch.

Yes. (I'm not sure about faith healing, but healing energy.) It's nice- we've got two local hospitals that have Reiki and/or massage therapy as a 'standing order' for all patients. Of course, as a Reiki practitioner, I'm biased.

Yes...as long as the patient is comfortable with it and open to healing.

I've noticed that hospitals in LDS areas always keep vials of consecrated oil handy for LDS blessings on the sick. I don't know if the doctors/nurses offer those services. I doubt they would ever offer it, but they might give a blessing if you knew they were LDS and asked. If I were in the hospital I'd probably call my roommate, bishop, grandfather, or hometeachers to come and give me a blessing if I felt I needed one. The hospitals have always allowed me to come in and give blessings when people have called and requested one.

Does the LDS faith use hands-on healing in any way? and if so do you think this would be useful in hospitals?

We do. That's what I was referring to above. I should have made that more clear. In the LDS church the sick are first annointed with a small dab of consecrated olive oil on their head. They are then blessed by "the laying on of hands." A few priesthood holders will put their hands on the head of the sick person and bless them as guided by the spirit.

I, of couse, believe this is very useful and have performed this ordinance in the hospital often.
