I know someone who is an atheist and believes in science...but also believes chakras exist, that Reiki works, and hypnosis can work on women giving birth to reduce pain.

[case]

Do they think there's a scientific explanation for those things that hasn't been found yet or something?

[(Anonymous)]

Well, there is quite a bit of legit science studying hypnosis and pain relief. The explanation I've seen most often is that fear of pain makes pain worse, so hypnosis can help deal with that fear/anxiety.

[case]

Yeah, I've seen/heard some of that. I was asking more about the person's general outlook, do they believe in it in terms of faith without needing to prove anything to people like Galaxy and Spirit Essences, or do they believe science can prove it, it just hasn't yet? I'd be more comfortable with the latter than the former.

If they believe it works, it works. It's the placebo effect. There's nothing wrong with bringing in metaphysical healing techniques in addition to traditional medicine. It's only when one relies on metaphysical healing in place of traditional medicine that bad things happen.
