Aim
Studies have reported that Reiki reduces several symptoms regarding hypertension, cancer, sleep disorders, psychological problems, and menstrual cycle. Reiki may also have positive effects on sexuality. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of Reiki on sexual function and sexual self-confidence in women with sexual distress. This randomized controlled study was conducted with women between the ages of 15–49 years who were registered at a family health center in the eastern region of Turkey and had sexual distress. Women experienced more sexual difficulties than men. Therefore, the sample of this study was women. The sample of the study consisted of 106 women, 53 in the experimental group and 53 in the control group. Women in the experimental group received Reiki once a week for four weeks, while no intervention was applied to those in the control group. Data were collected using the Female Sexual Distress Scale-Revised (FSDS-R), the Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale (ASEX), and the Sexual Self-confidence Scale (SSS). The levels of sexual distress, sexual function, and sexual self-confidence of women in both groups were similar before the intervention, and the difference between the groups was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). After the Reiki application, the FSDS-R and ASEX mean scores of women in the experimental group significantly decreased, while their SSS mean score significantly increased, and the difference between the groups was statistically significant (p < 0.05). In the present study, Reiki was associated with reduced sexual distress, positive outcomes in sexual functions, and increase sexual self-confidence in women with sexual distress. Healthcare professionals may find Reiki to positively enhance women's sexuality.

Nowadays health field, the treatment of visual arts in alternative treatment methods enables the
use of visual arts for therapy purposes. At certain points in the human body are energy centers,
called “chakra”, which have different frequencies and are associated with the endocrine system
and the nervous system. Each of the chasers has a specific function, frequency, name, note, sense,
reason, shape and color that affect both the body and the consciousness. While the mechanism of
action of Reiki is not precisely clear, it is assumed that the organs are in communication through
electromagnetic fields and that it helps to re-circulate the energy in the clogged channels. In this
natural healing method, energy is transferred by hand. The nurse who carries out his profession
in the care of the patient is a channel that transmits only the universal life energy and transfers
the energies flowing in this process without losing energy but being strengthened and filled with
energy. The energy delivered is determined according to the needs of the receiver. It is widely
used in rehabilitation units, hospices, emergency care units, psychiatric clinics, operating rooms,
retirement home / elderly care homes, pediatrics clinics, gynecology and gynecology clinics, and
neonatal care clinics
This systematic review aimed to identify the benefits of Reiki in mental health care. Eleven studies were included.
