Phantom limb pain is a condition characterized by painful sensations in the missing part of the amputated limb, which reduces the quality of life of the individual. It has been reported that approximately 85% of patients undergoing amputation experience phantom limb pain, and chronic pain is the most common symptom in individuals who have undergone limb amputation. These problems negatively affect individuals physically, mentally and socially and lead to deterioration of holistic well-being. This study will be examined the effect of distant reiki on pain and holistic well-being of ındividuals with phantom pain after amputation.

Reiki is one of the holistic health practices that is effective in maintaining the balance between body, mind and spirit, which forms the basis of holistic well-being. Reiki, known as an energy-based therapy, helps to rebalance the natural energy flow circulating in the body and to increase the body's self-healing ability, and it prevents or repairs physical, emotional and mental imbalances by regaining the energy we lost in daily life. The purpose of Reiki practice is to promote health and well-being by helping to relax and reduce stress.There is no study in the literature examining the effect of reiki application on phantom pain and holistic well-being.This study was planned to examine the effect of remote reiki applied to individuals with post-amputation phantom pain on pain and holistic well-being.It is thought that it will contribute to the literature in terms of being the first research to be done on this subject.
