Hiya Jill,

By no effect I mean that no one experiences anything. No changes, no feelings, nothing at all. I have one friend who is particularly sensitive to energy and senses nothing also. I have sent distance reiki to more then one person.
This is good. Well, not good exactly, but good to know, it's similar to my experiences, so i can talk better bout it.

I've used different techniques: I have a stuffed bear that I've used as the person, using the distance symbol and the intention of sending healing reiki. Also have written their name on paper, drawing the symbol and sending reiki, or visualizing them in my hand, drawing the symbol and sending reiki.
This reply is kinda not gonna be in exact order, cause the questions i asked were in wrong order, hehe, sorry.
what style are you? Reason why i ask is to do with this next technique, and the reason it's important i'll say later in response to a comment you made further down.
have you tried Takata sensei's absent healing technqiue? For me it's the one technique that made a world of difference with the recipeints. Here's the technqiue:
ENKAKU CHIRYO
'Distant Treatment' or 'Distant Healing'

There are various methods for performing Enkaku Chiryo.
The following is the primary method taught by Takata-sensei:
What is now generally referred to as Distant (or Distance) Healing/Treatment, Takata-sensei spoke of as "Absent Healing".
[She used the term Local Healing for hands-on work.]
Takata-sensei taught that for absent healing, if you don't know the person (to be treated) you need to get a picture - with a clear image of their face - so that you can visualize them when you close your eyes. [You do not use the photograph when doing the healing treatment, only to see what they look like so you can clearly visualize them]
Close your eyes. Call their name three times as you concentrate on the image of that person [in your mind]. Write the HSZSN on their 'forehead', followed by the CKR. "Then everything is set for you to treat"
Takata-sensei's method is very much in line with the 'see it, say it, do it' approach.
We should visualize giving a full treatment and actually do that treatment in the air. Do the positions for the head, then the front of the body (large CKR over the torso), then the back (large CKR starting at the left shoulder, then all the way down the back), giving a running commentary to the client as to what you are doing, e.g:
"I start the treatment on your head. I'm treating your eyes; your sinuses; [etc, etc] Now I'm treating your front: your chest, [etc, etc]. Now I'm turning you over, treating your back... your lumbar area, [etc, etc]. Now I'm rubbing your back.[At the end of the treatment we should rub the back to aid the circulation.] Now I am finished"
In performing an absent healing treatment, the treatment is [solely] sent to the client: the practitioner does not receive treatment as well.
For absent healing, the treatment should only be thirty minutes as it is a concentrated treatment. Switch off the phone. Do what you can to ensure you won't be disturbed. You don't want your concentration scattered.
If giving absent healing treatment daily, by the third day or fourth day you can reduce the length of time you are treating for: twenty minutes is enough.
Treat only one person at a time. A maximum of three people in succession [i.e. during any one session]
Takata-sensei said she preferred to do absent healing early in the morning (5.30 -6.00 am) because the energy was 'higher'.
She spoke of doing absent healing treatment, and of 'sending' good thoughts. [She did not talk of 'sending Reiki energy']

http://www.aetw.org/d_enkaku_chiryo.htmThis technqiue, using the photo etc, and going through the whole tihng as a treatment, is you actually giving much more focus and connection to the person, this can result in a more pronounced expereince.

My training and attunement was all done in person.
Cool, we know it's likely not a lack of training, or half-assed attunement then,

This is still very good!

I do much prefer to do in-person, hands-on treatment.
Excellant! IMO, this is where the issue lies. Cause it did for me as well some time ago!
I preferred to do hands-on treatments also. I was having good results in-person, though not so good distance. This then created doubts within me. I began to feel sub-consciously that in-person was the more optimum approach. And this would actually make distance less effective. IMO, in Reiki perception is everything. It really does dictate our depth of experience.
when i began to study some quantum physics, and realised that there's nothing actually seperating you & I, Jill (for example), and that Reiki never actually moves anywhere (cause in quantum physics nothing moves anywhere, ever), that it just appears, things began to get more clearer for me.
when i also began to realsie that HSZSN is to do with mindfullness, and, imo, the true essense of being (mindfullness) is that all is one, whether i treated in-person or distance, it was only a matter of my limited perception, and not a matter of reality. AS HSZSN strips away my limited awareness in a sub-conscious way, i was realising internally (by using HSZSN) that there is no seperatedness, so all Reiki treatments are 'in-person' actually!
Also, Takata sensei advised to only do 3, 20 mins absent treatments in a row, that it was too concentrated. IMO, this supports that our illusions are borke down internally, so actually the limting beleifs we have no longer apply, this makes the absent treatment much more effective than our in-person one.
