Intuited by Dr. Usui, Reiki is a very gentle form of energy work that has been known to
support emotional and physical wellness.
Reiki means "Life Force Energy." Life force energy flows through all of us and is what allows life.
When one's "life force energy is low, one is more susceptible to getting sick, or feeling stressed.
When one's life force energy is high, one is more capable of experiencing joy and health.
During a Reiki treatment the therapist's hands are placed just off, or lightly touching (client's choice), the fully clothed body. Energy flows where it is needed. One may experience this as warmth or tingling.
The intention of Reiki is to support deep relaxation, encourage speed healing and pain reduction, and
encourage the decrease of other emotional, psychological, or physical symptoms one may be experiencing.
Because there is no belief system attached to Reiki it is accessible to everyone.
As with any healing, the first step towards a healthier life is the desire to be well.
Reiki is an accepted and credited massage modality.
Currently, Reiki is being used by John Hopkins Integrated Medicine Center
