    I have asked you not to question my beliefs so can you stop please?
    With all due respect, Gumbi hasn't questioned your beliefs in this instance. S/he has simply offered alternative explanations for your neck pain for your consideration. Perfectly reasonable ones, I might add. Maybe have a think about them before getting all defensive/reactionary/insecure in your beliefs?

    Science changes. Open your mind.
    Don't open it too wide though. Any old rubbish is liable to fall in...

    Do you really feel the need to joke about my post??
    It's not a joke. Maybe you just have a sore neck. Give it a few days. Hope you feel better.

    Not guilty. That wasn't medical advice. Stop backseat modding?

    Take two aspirin and give it a few days would be medical advice. Can you see the difference, or do you need the thick cardboard pages, nice bright pictures version?

    You're actually incredibly wrong.

    Saying take two aspiring give it a few days is equally medical advice as saying "take a few days rest". You're giving someone advice on how to overcome an injury while having no professional authority to do so. You should butt out of this thread, you're a menace.

    There's nothing to indicate the sore neck was or wasn't caused by an injury. I wouldn't of course be qualified to say either way. Which is why I didn't. Either diagnose or offer medical advice.

    Two aspiring what, by the way?

    What do you mean when you say "I believe totally in modern science"?? I don't believe IN it. I believe it's the best tool we have for discerning fact from fiction.

    Out of interest Dogsbody, why were you not up in arms when people claiming to be reiki practitioners gave advice based on reikiology? That reads a lot closer to medical advice than your selective misreading of my post. If somebody claimed to he a medical doctor, and did similar on a more rational forum, folks would quite rightly have something to say about it.

    No selective reading on my behalf, your recommended a course of treatment, you're just too deluded to acknowledge that.

    With regard to reiki, the fact the forum we're in is spiritualism, the thread starter is specifically looking for reiki advice, and the context of the answers are all within the realm of reiki, I don't see much to complain about. They are looking for reiki advice, not medical.

    Wait to see if the pain goes away is not 'a course of treatment'. If it was, I wouldn't have suggested it. The forum is irrelevant. There's a site wide ban on medical advice. Depending on your level of gulliblity, reiki qualifies as (pseudo) medical intervention. A responsible practitioner would insist the OP seek a physical consultation, and the thread would have been closed. Different rules apply, I imagine, as those who promote alternative-to-medicine know on some level that just as the treatment does no good, the advice will do no harm. They indulge each other. And react comically to those who don't. I recommend you have your consistency chakra realigned.*






    * not medical advice.

    Hi,im a reiki 2 practitioner,and in my experience,reiki opens your chakras,and you may be open to psychic attack,in other words,you may have not been made aware that grounding and protection is hugely important. there are a lot of very good vids on youtube on these subjects.reiki is a spiritual modality and you may be attracting malevolant spirits so you need to ground and protect yourself. i hope this helps.

    Funniest thing I've read on Boards all month.

    What are you asking me? Why isn't the discussion of reiki banned? Why isn't the discussion of reiki as it applies to an individual case banned? I don't make the rules, I'm just offering an interpretation because you asked. You seem to have some kind of agenda where you want to ridicule reiki, I'm not sure why you're in the forum if you're goal is purely to troll.

    I think you should be banned for trolling and for offering medical advice but I don't want to sound like i'm back seat moderating as you put it.

    Disagreeing isn't trolling. Take a deep breath.* Good man.





    *also not medical advice.**





    ** may be medical advice in yoga.

    Thread closed. Many many many bans and infractions to be handed out. I'd suggest everyone concerned read up on The Charter.
