I would use great caution with Reiki in a prayer-list-type situation! I have an autoimmune disorder and healing my body tends to cause it to better be able to attack itself, which can make things very, very bad for me.
Indeed, I had taken steps to fortify my own health last week for the same reason I'm on the prayer list, and I overdid it, which gave me two pleasant days followed by a week of very, very difficult ones. In my case, the prayers are welcome since Divinity is aware of all this and how to work with or around it (or even abstain from taking action if there is none possible), which is not the case with mundane, energetic, or magical healing methods.
