Witnessing Energy Medicine: Perceptions of Dee, a Clairvoyant Seer

Despite growing evidence of the positive health benefits of some energy medicine modalities, there is no consensus within the scientific community for how energy medicine works. In an effort to fill in the gaps of our knowledge, IONS conducted a large pilot study to better understand the effects of energy medicine and find clues regarding it’s mechanism of action — the means by which these modalities can affect the body.

In this pilot study, energy medicine practitioners conducted sessions with individuals suffering hand and wrist pain. One particularly unique aspect to the design of this research project was the inclusion of a clairvoyant seer (Dee) present in the room for all the sessions, who observed the event from an energetic level and recorded her perceptions. In including this seer our goal was to explore the questions:

  • How do energy medicine sessions function from the perspective of a clairvoyant seer?

  • Do any of these observations relate to changes in the participants’ subjective pain?
