In terms of western medicine, the unconscious reaction represents a response to the autonomic nervous system. This report is based on the results of questionnaire surveys I conducted on patients administered external Ki therapy (Shinkiko therapy) with Alpha Wave 1/f Music; Ki-energized cassette tape called 'ONKI'. ONKI was developed five years ago by Dr. Masato Nakagawa who is a famous Ki therapist in Japan. The total number of patients were 466. Total responsive questionnaires came to 1634. I surveyed their body reaction after I administered external Ki therapy with Alpha Wave 1/f Music. The contents of the survey are as follows; Changing of heart beat rate, A.relaxation, B.rise in body temperature, C.physiological response (body secretions), D.involuntary body movements, changing pain conditions. As a result, I perceived that subjects who had high heart beat rates had tendency to decline and those who had low heart beat rates had tendency to rise. In regards to B. C. D., I saw distinct statical differences toward the control groups. (P<0.01) Moreover, pain was reduced by 73.6% of the data. I will report more and include a few findings from the autonomic nerve system point of view.
