What is Reiki?

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei which means “God’s wisdom or the higher power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that promotes healing. Reiki is also considered “universal life force energy” brought into the physical plane through a trained practitioner. Reiki helps to harmonize body, mind and spirit for yourself or anyone you want to help.

How does Reiki work?

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady that creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

How is Reiki administered?

The patient relaxes, fully clothed, on a couch, treatment table or seated while the practitioner holds their hands on or above the patient. There is little or no pressure on the body making it ideal for treating all ages and conditions. Sometimes hands are even held away from the body. The energy flows wherever it is required – spiritually guided – and can normally be felt as a warm sensation or tingling in the body. Receiving Reiki is a very relaxing and soothing experience.
