What Is Reiki

What Is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese form of stress reduction and relaxation that promotes healing in the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. It is a natural means of transferring life force energy through the hands of a practitioner to stimulate healthy energetic flow throughout a person. Reiki is completely safe with no side effects as it is the energy which flows through all living and non-living things. Reiki creates only beneficial effects, and flows naturally to where the individual needs it in order to have balance and wellness within and without.

Low life force energy can lead to physical symptoms of ill-health and disease, and mental and emotional symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression, and inability to function or cope as well as one can and would prefer. Reiki removes blocked energy, releases negative energy, and creates a healthy energetic flow throughout a person. It promotes feelings of relaxation, peace, a sense of calm and security, and improves one’s sense of total well-being. It can relieve pain and tension, improve the immune system, and promotes the body’s natural ability to self-heal. 

Reiki is not a substitute for any medical treatment and should never be used in place of established medical treatments or advice. In hospitals and medical settings it is recognized and used as a complimentary form of treatment to support wellness and healing. It is often performed on a massage table in a relaxing setting, and may be used in conjunction with sound healing tools and modalities as well as crystals and essential oils.
