Pranic healing is a part of alternative therapies, a method of energy healing. It was founded and promoted by Grand Master Choa Kok Sui. Prana is called ‘chi’ in China and ‘ki’ in Japan. The word pranic was originated from a Sanskrit word ‘Prana’ which means life force.

Life force (Prana) simply means energy. All matters in the universe are made up of energy. It is not just about our physical body we are talking about here. Even, our thoughts and feelings are also energy waves which actually can be measured through proper instruments.

Even up and downs in your relationships, the amount of money you earn are all basically just energy patterns. And the most interesting part is that all humans have this natural ability to feel this energy and to modify it. But only a few of them can generally realize that and some of them use their knowledge to help others.

In the 1980s, Filipino Master Choa Kok Sui conducted an exhaustive investigation into the power of energy for healing. He compiled and synthesized the knowledge of the Chinese, Indian Rishis (Hindi: ‘wise, saint’), Taoists and Tibetan monks and designed a practical system of scientifically documented healing called Pranic Healing.

Pranic Healing is based on two fundamental laws.

• The body has the potential and ability to heal and repair itself.
• Life Energy (Referred to as Chi in China, Ki in Japan, Prana in India, and Ruah in the Bible) surrounds and permeates the physical body.

An individual’s healing capacity depends on how much Prana that person has. Therefore, boosting a person’s Life Force in the affected areas of the body increases the body’s self-recovery mechanism.

Pranic Healing is based on the principle of connection between the physical body and the energy body (or aura). One follows the other. For healing, we work on the energy body (particularly on the areas and Chakras affected by the ailment/disease) to accelerate the healing process.  Working systematically on the energy body creates a new pattern that supports and accelerates the body’s innate ability to heal.

Pranic Healing uses a cookbook approach for healing different ailments. There is a protocol (recipe) for anything from nose bleeds to coronary artery disease, trauma, and anxiety. These unique protocols help in producing tangible results in a short period. Pranic Healing involves scanning the human aura to detect imbalances of energies, known as energetic congestion and depletion. It then uses cleansing techniques to remove dirty, diseased, and used-up energies, followed by energizing techniques to improve energy flow and strengthen the aura and the chakras. Once the aura is balanced, clean, and strong, it improves the physical health of the individual owing to the law of correspondence. It means what affects the energy body affects the physical body and vice versa.

Yes, it is completely scientific. The techniques and applications of Pranic Healing are designed after extensive scientific research, experiments, and validation. Pranic Healing uses a cookbook approach to healing different ailments. There is a protocol (recipe) for anything from nose bleeds to coronary artery disease, trauma, and anxiety.

Chakras are like power plants that provide energy for the proper functioning of the body. Each chakra is responsible for controlling and energizing certain parts and organs of the physical body. If the chakras malfunction, they will adversely affect the proper functioning of the vital internal organs. Chakras, besides physical functions, also have psychological functions, which determine a person’s character.

In Pranic Healing we do not treat the meredians per say. Healing is brought about by treating the energy centers or chakras. Meridians form the basis for other forms of complementary medicine such as accupuncture and accupressure.

The physical body comprises two parts: the visible physical body and the energy body, the etheric body, the bioplasmic body, or the aura, which is invisible. These two bodies are interconnected; it means what affects one also affects the other. This is known as the law of correspondence. Hence healing the energy body has substantial relief on the physical body.
