Reiki is a Japanese word for “universal life force energy.” It dates back 2500 years to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition and was rediscovered by Dr. Usui, a Japanese scholar, in the late 19th century. Reiki Is a holistic system of healing and works on four main levels: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
Reiki is a healing technique based on the principle that the therapist can channel energy to the patient by means of touch, to activate the natural healing process of the patient’s body and help restore physical and emotional well-being. The treatment will feel like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. It is a simple, natural and safe method of healing and can be used to complement all other medical or therapeutic techniques.
When you receive Reiki healing, you lay fully clothed on a treatment table while the Reiki practitioner places their hands lightly on different parts of your body. It is not a belief system or linked to any religion or culture. It works as a pure energy, similar to feelings, intent and thought.
