Quantum healing

Quantum healing must be better than faith healing because it talks about quantum which makes the healing scientific. Googling quantum healing brings up any number of sites; below are some examples.

“”Quantum healers grow old and die just as fast as their classical counterparts, albeit in better financial health.
—David Pearce

Deepak Chopra
See the main article on this topic: Deepak Chopra

Deepak Chopra applies quantum woo to heal a patient's body. According to Chopra:[1]

“”Quantum healing is healing the bodymind from a quantum level. That means from a level which is not manifest at a sensory level. Our bodies ultimately are fields of information, intelligence and energy. Quantum healing involves a shift in the fields of energy information, so as to bring about a correction in an idea that has gone wrong. So quantum healing involves healing one mode of consciousness, mind, to bring about changes in another mode of consciousness, body.

... huh?

Quantum touch

The ladies are doing it as well as Chopra.
And there's more! Did you know that you can heal by touch and by the power of love? Your love has extraordinary healing power! [2] Basically, it's like other forms of hands-on healing, like Reiki and therapeutic touch. One difference is that the power of quantum touch is claimed to consist in certain techniques that can be learned. In Reiki, by contrast, laying-on-of-hands is said to only be effective after healing powers have been "transferred" from the teacher to the student (a process called "attunement" in Reiki parlance), regardless of how well an unattuned believer might follow the Reiki hand movements. Quantum Touch is also claimed to be "a therapy that helps bones to spontaneously adjust to their proper alignment."[3]

Quantum depth healing

Quantum depth healing looks like a relatively harmless placebo but one of the names involved is a Ryke Geerd Hamer. Well down on the page comes:[4]

“”It must be mentioned here that at this time (2005) Dr. Hamer is being accused by the "Tribunal de Grande Instance" in Chambéry, France, of "agitation against medical science and instigation of the New Medicine, with the purpose of its practice" (Inquiry Custody Order since 1993). See details here.

Hamer was jailed for 12 months in Germany from 1997 to 1998, and served a prison term from September 2004 to February 2006 in Fleury-Mérogis, and in France on counts of fraud and illegal practicing. He subsequently lived in voluntary exile in Spain until March 2007, when he allegedly moved to Norway.

Hamer has been in prison many times and has caused the deaths of patients through discouraging them from following proper medicine that works. He seems to believe in a crazy International Jewish conspiracy to suppress his deadly so-called medicine.

gollark: That's not true. I can think of them giving me a million pounds.
gollark: Conspiracy theory: what if some of the machines randomly trying to SSH into your server and whatnot... are honeypots *themselves*, trying to get people to 1337 h4xx back into *them*?
gollark: You've really dashed my hopes of a giant computer army, though...
gollark: What if I make it log into them... and politely notify them of the problem?
