Panic disorder severity (panic disorder severity scale-self report) and severity of agoraphobia (severity measure for agoraphobia-adult) were measured at day 0, day 60 and day 240. Moderate panic disorder (raw score was 12) with mild agoraphobia (raw score was 10) was reduced after 14 pranic healing sessions given in two months duration.
