다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of reiki self-healing on climacteric complaints of middle-aged women. The subjects of the study were chosen among the middle-aged women between 40 and 59 years old, who practice at M and S Meditation Center located in C city. The experimental group was made up of 15 middle-aged women who had practiced Level 1 or higher reiki attunement, while the control group consisted of 15 middle-aged women who had never had the reiki attunement. The research tool was the reiki self-healing program arranged by the researcher and the experimental group took the self-healing program three times a week for 8 weeks. In order to verify the effects of the program, a questionnaire of 20 self-report questions was used. DITI(Digital Infra-red Thermographic Imaging) was also used as a measuring tool. The identification between the experimental group and the control group was verified by using T-test, and the statistical data was compared and analyzed by using the Repeated Measure ANOVA. The study results show that reiki self-healing had statistically significant effects of changing the climacteric symptoms of middle-aged women and the sub-factor of physical symptoms. Reiki self-healing has positive effects on the climacteric symptoms as well as potential influences on the holistic health management of middle-aged women. Therefore this study has proved that reiki healing is of great significance and worth applying to middle-aged women.
