The Reiki therapist has vowed to help 71-year-old Bronson win his freedom by aiding him with the Japanese “energy healing”.

A source said: “Bronson is cock-a- hoop that he’s friends with Jacky.

"He’s been talking about her non-stop.”

The award-winning therapist, known as Jacky Reiki, visited the serial ­hostage taker last month at high- ­security HMP Long Lartin, Worcs.

Bronson was first jailed for armed robbery aged 22 in 1974 — but has remained locked up over a string of violent offences inside.

Ms Whelan has told pals she hopes Reiki, which practitioners claim transfers “universal energy”, will help the lag stay out of trouble.

Reiki usually involves the “healer” pressing their palms on to a client.

The insider said: “She’s told him she can send him healing energy on visits — and from afar — which will help him physically and emotionally.

"But most people think it’s a load of nonsense.”

Ms Whelan confirmed her friendship with him but declined to comment, as did the Prison Service.
