> Effectiveness of Spiritist “passe” (Spiritual
healing) for anxiety levels,
depression, pain, muscle tension, well-being, and physiological parameters
in cardiovascular inpatients: A randomized controlled trial
Resumo
Background: Biofield therapies, such
as laying on of hands, are used in association with Conventional Medicine
as Spiritist “passe”, among others. The aim of this study
was to evaluate anxiety, depression, pain, muscle tension and well-being,
as well as physiological parameters in cardiovascular inpatients submitted
to the Spiritist “passe”, sham, and no intervention.
Methods: In the total, 41 cardiovascular inpatients
submitted to the Spiritist “passe”, sham, and no intervention
during a 10-min period on 3 consecutive days. They were evaluated
through anxiety and depression level, pain, the perceptions of muscle
tension and well-being and physiological parameters, before and after
interventions.
Results: A significant reduction (p = 0.001) in anxiety
scores and muscle tension (p = 0.011), improvement of well-being (p
= 0.003) and a significant increase in peripheral oxyhemoglobin saturation
scores (p = 0.028) were observed in Spiritist “passe”
patients, and a significant reduction (p = 0.028) of muscle tension
and improvement of well-being (p = 0.045) in sham patients. However,
muscle tension reduction (p = 0.003) and improvement of well-being
(p = 0.003) were more accentuated in the Spiritist “passe”
compared to sham and no intervention.
Conclusions: Results suggest that the Spiritist “passe”
appeared to be effective, reducing anxiety level and the perception
of muscle tension, consequently improving peripheral oxyhemoglobin
saturation and the sensation of well-being compared to sham and no
intervention in cardiovascular inpatients.
