In germany it is considered a scam, except by a few esoteric freaks and some really desperate patients of course. a few years ago a couple tried to sue for their right to withhold classical treatment from their child - some form of cancer - and have it treated by some guru... in the end they fled the country... and got sued themselves by state attorney for mistreatment and negligence...

I don't understand the question. How valid is the evaluttion? I have no idea who is do the evaluating. I don't know what they know about energy healing. Your going to get a wide variety of answers with that question.

I agree it is gaining ground in the US and many European countries. Almost to the point of being mainstream.
Reiki is getting extremely popular...judging from the number of places where it is now possible to be trained. I believe I heard some hospitals in the US have Reiki on staff.
Movies and TV shows are increasingly showing glimpses of energy healing, which raises its profile. However it is a double edged sword because that also associates it with stories of ghosts and mediums which I think is counterproductive.
Curiously, of my friends, the most distrusting of energy healing are of the Christian faith. It seems that because they believe that Christ was God's son that for anyone else to heal with their hands is some sort of blasphemy. Which is rather sad.

Energy healing is practiced in germany and the usa within circles of people if it is a complicated "healing", or can be done by individuals. It is something viewed by society on the "esoteric/wierd" side, but not usually as freakish. We never tell people that Reiki healing will be absolute and allways advise a patient to also seek out a regular medical doctor.
I hope this helps you out.
