Reiki is a Japanese holistic technique that uses the universal life force energy to promote deep relaxation that often aids healing. It is gentle method of hands-on healing that channels universal energy also known as ki in Japan, chi in China and prana in India. Reiki is a Japanese word meaning universal life energy. The practice of Reiki is based on the teachings of Mikao Usui, who practiced and taught this healing technique in the early 20th century.

Reiki is not a massage, hypnosis or a tool for diagnosing illnesses.

The known benefits of Reiki includes: reduction of stress, sleep improvement, enhances learning, restores energy, and speeds healing. The deep relaxation one experiences during a Reiki session can provide relief from anxiety, depression and muscle tension. In addition, relaxation helps to balance the immune system, improve circulation and provide a general sense of well-being.
Reiki also works in conjunction with and complements all other medical and therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

Reiki is not used to replace your current medical treatment. If you are in need of medical attention, please consult a licensed healthcare provider.

What is a Reiki Session like?

In a typical healing session, a person lies on a massage table fully clothed with only the shoes removed. Little or no pressure is applied and no oils are used. Sessions are easily adapted to accommodate special needs such as wheelchair or hospital bed.

Before a session, the practitioner will often ask if there are any areas of concern or specific places you would like the practitioner to focus on. The practitioner will simply place his or her hands on or above your head, shoulders, chest, stomach and limbs. Some practitioners follow a series of hand positions or will follow intuitive suggestions. The universal energy flows, not from the practitioner, but through the practitioner, to you.

Because universal energy is intelligent energy, you will receive the right amount of energy that is appropriate for your healing. Reiki energy is only for the highest good and can never cause harm.

Though Reiki techniques appear simple, the effects can feel profound. Many feel deep relaxation; others may feel tingling, pulsing or warmth. Many become so comfortable, they fall asleep.

Results can be subtle. Some say they feel little during the session but afterwards feel a sense of calm and well-being. Sleep is often deep and healing. The healing from a single Reiki session can last days or even weeks. It is important to drink a lot of water after a session to help release toxins. It is possible to experience powerful sensations or emotions during or after a session. Your practitioner will want to hear about your responses to the degree you are comfortable sharing them.
