Psychic surgery
has had its successes and failures. I have heard
many reports from people wh have witnessed this
type of healing and have seen patients recover,
while others have died. It is difficult to believe
that one can pierce the skin of the sick person,
remove the problem, often a tumor, without much
bleeding, after which the person is cured, but it
has been done and witnessed.
Psychic surgery
is allegedly a paranormal surgical procedure, practiced
chiefly in the Philippines and Brazil. It is performed
by self-styled psychic doctors or psychic surgeons,
who claim and are reported to extract "tumors" or
other presumed pathological objects (pus, bones,
and so on) from the patient's body through a bloody
but painless and invisible "incision", often made
with bare hands and without the use of antiseptics
or anesthetics.
Psychic surgeons often claim special magical or
paranormal abilities. Practitioner Leony Romero
claims an innate ability to "raise the vibration"
of his hands so that they can pass through the patient's
tissues, and turn "diseased energy" into physical
matter.Psychic surgery should not be confused with
psychosurgery.
Psychic surgery is a modern expression of traditional
Filipino shamanism. Practiced also in North America
by visiting Filipino shamans, psychic surgery involves
the extraction of "tumors" from the body through
a bloody but painless and invisible 'incision' in
the patient's abdomen. Chicken blood and parts have
been found hidden on the shamans who perform these
procedures."
"The 'psychic surgeons' of the Philippines and Brazil
are marketed as traditional healers who possess
special, mystical powers."
"Psychic surgery is a procedure in which sleight-of-hand
is used to create an illusion that patients can
be cured with surgery that leaves no skin wound."
The psychic operation is "the removal of tissue
from the body using bare hands, without the use
of anaesthetics or antisepsis, leaving little or
no indication on the skin that an operation had
been performed
