Reiki [Ray-Key] is a light touch therapy from Japan that helps you feel better and heal better. It provides deep relaxation, mental and emotional balance, and facilitates the body’s ability to heal.
Reiki is the healing energy of the universe. “Rei” means “universe” and “ki” means “energy,” (like the Chinese word, “Qi” or “chi”). During a Reiki session, this gentle healing energy is offered by the Reiki practitioner to the recipient. Reiki is a complementary therapy that works with any other treatments or medications. When one receives a Reiki session, your innate healing abilities are activated and enhanced and you are always in charge. Even babies can receive Reiki — it cannot overwhelm the recipient!
One of the unique things about Reiki is that you can learn to practice it on yourself. It is a wonderful self-care technique for calmness and clarity. A Reiki class empowers you to transmit Reiki energy through your hands. When you have learned Reiki, you have this ability for life and can use this healing energy to promote balance and harmony on all levels of your being — anytime, anywhere, simply by placing your hands on.
