It is suggested that in case of blockage in an energy center, illness or imbalance may occur and it may be treated by touching by hand according to Reiki. In this case, the first episode of psychosis with intense occupation of reiki will be presented. A 57 year-old woman presented with the complaints of auditory hallucinations, decreased need for sleep, and skepticism. In psychiatric examination; poor self-care, irritable affect, decreased psychomotor activity, flight of associations, mystic delusions, and auditory illusions were noted. It was her first psychiatric administration and her complaints were exacerbated 10 days ago. According to her family, the patient, who has no intimate friendship, has been busy with reiki for 4 years. As the level of reiki goes up, the patient, who predicts the increase of the auditory hallucinations as a reward, has tried to heal the patients through the energy and has tried to eat the earth and to throw herself from 3 meters high. For a possible organic etiology, no pathological findings were found in the results of the blood tests and cranial MRI. Haloperidol 20 mg/day, biperidene 4 mg/day quetiapine 100 mg/day was recommended for the patient who was diagnosed as atypical psychosis. Within a week, her complaints were down. The beginning of the psychotic manifestations of our case, such as hearing the voices, may suggest that a mission like healing in this ritual leads the patient to a psychotic life. From another point of view, the fact that the patient’s introverted prodromal period may suggest that there is a psychotic pattern with negative symptoms in the beginning, and perhaps the patient may turn to this area for self-medication. It may be appropriate to evaluate Reiki healing technique from the perspective of psychosis in addition to healing activity.
