Healing Research Lists, Abstracts

Formal research is essential to the advancement of healing. Numerous reports of significant improvements with healing, from both healers and healees, have not been sufficient to convince skeptics that healing really is effective

The Council for Healing has collected as many studies on healing as we could identify at this time. The combined collection from all sources is presented in alphabetical order by the last name of the first author. (For separate lists, see below)

ABC  DEF  GHI  JKL  MNO  PQRS  TUV  WXYZ

Where available, we have also included Abstracts. We welcome abstracts from authors or from anyone else who has a copy of articles where abstracts are missing from our list.

We have included a spectrum of reports in our combined list. The type of report is indicated at the end of each study:

CASE
DISC = discussion
META = meta analysis
MAR = marginal value (to save researchers the trouble of hunting these down)
MAR METHODS = a formal research study with seriously flawed methodology
OBS = Observational report (series of cases)
P = popular article
Q = qualitative study
RES = research
SUR = survey

For a discussion on research methodology see: www.wholistichealingresearch.com/research.html
