Reiki
The Reiki is practiced in an institute during 1-hour sessions. The person is lying down, the eyes closed, while the expert proceeds by laying on hands without touching the body.

The relaxation feeling is immediate. Then you only have to translate into words the messages transmitted by the body during the session.
