Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 534 subjects between 10 and 90 years. 203 subjects filled the inclusion criteria, 177 subjects reported pain symptoms: 32 subjects with medium pain and 145 subjects with high chronic pain The Confidential Treatment Form of the Institute for Inner Studies, Inc (IIS) Pranic Healing Certification (FTC-CPH) program is completed and signed, before and after receiving PH care. For the assessment of pain, the Visual Analog Scale – EVA was used, on an intensity scale from 0 to 10, where zero is the total absence of pain and 10 is the maximum pain limit.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 331 individuals who did not complete the Pranic Healing Certification Program (FTC-CPH) Confidential Treatment Form (FTC-CPH) of the Institute for Inner Studies, Inc (IIS) correctly, or did not sign and did not report after receiving treatment with Pranic Healing

| Expected Outcome 2 The total group of patients (male and female), showed statistical significance before and immediately after PH in the total group of patients;Outcome found 2 The total group of patients (male and female) showed a considerable reduction in chronic pain. The paired T-test showed statistical significance before and immediately after PH in the total group of patients (p <0.001) Group of patients separated by sex (male and female), before and immediately after PH. The figure shows a statistically significant difference (P = <0.001) between the pre and post PH groups, both male and female When compared before the female PH group versus the male PH group (p equal to 0.743) and after the female PH group versus the male PH group (p equal to 0.340), both did not show statistically significant differences Patients divided by age group before and after PH. There was a statistically significant difference when individuals were analyzed separately by age in both groups (p <0.001) One-way ANOVA showed statistical significance in all groups when compared before and after PH, regardless of gender or age (p less than 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference when comparing the female group versus the male group before (p = 0.743) and after PH (p = 0.340) | — |
