What Is Low Immunity?
Low immunity means your body has trouble fighting off germs. As a result, you may get sick more often. Some people are born with low immunity. Others develop it from stress, poor diet, or certain illnesses. Because of this, you might feel tired or catch colds easily. Low immunity can affect your daily life. Therefore, finding ways to support your immune system is important.
Understanding Reiki Healing
Reiki is a gentle form of energy healing. It started in Japan and is now used worldwide. During a Reiki session, a trained practitioner places their hands lightly on or above your body. Many people say Reiki helps them relax. Some believe it can help balance the body’s energy. Because of its gentle nature, Reiki is often used as a natural way to support immunity and well-being.
How Reiki Sessions May Support the Immune System
Many people seek Reiki sessions for immune system support. While Reiki does not cure diseases, it may help your body in several ways. For example, Reiki can:Reduce stress, which can weaken the immune systemPromote relaxation, helping your body rest and recoverSupport emotional balance, which may help overall health
Because stress can lower immunity, boosting immunity with Reiki may help you feel stronger. Some people use Reiki as an energy healing method for immune health. Although results vary, many find it helpful as a natural way to support immunity.
What to Expect During a Reiki Session
During a Reiki session, you will usually lie down fully clothed. The practitioner will place their hands gently on or just above your body. Most sessions last 30 to 60 minutes. You may feel warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation. Some people even fall asleep. After the session, you might feel calm and refreshed. Because Reiki is non-invasive, most people find it very comfortable.
Scientific Evidence and Expert Opinions
Research on Reiki and immune system support is still growing. Some small studies suggest Reiki may help reduce stress and improve mood. For example, a review in the Journal of Evidence-Based Complementary & Alternative Medicine found Reiki may lower anxiety and pain. However, large studies are still needed. The World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) do not list Reiki as a cure for low immunity. Instead, they recommend proven medical treatments. Still, many experts agree that Reiki can be a helpful addition to regular care, especially for stress relief.

Safety, Limitations, and When to See a Doctor
Reiki is generally safe for most people. However, it should not replace medical care. If you have low immunity, always talk to your doctor first. Reiki can be a helpful addition, but it does not treat infections or serious illnesses. If you have a fever, ongoing fatigue, or frequent infections, see a healthcare provider. Early care can prevent problems from getting worse. Remember, combining Reiki with healthy habits and medical advice offers the best support for your immune system.
