What
is Reiki?
Reiki is an ancient healing system rediscovered in Japan in the late 19th century
by Dr.Mikao Usui. It translates as Universal (Rei) Life Energy (Ki). Ki, the same Qi of Chinese Medicine, is the energy
that flows within us and that supports life. When Ki fails to flow or is depleted, symptoms of disease can occur. A Reiki
practitioner can access Ki from its source (Rei) and channel it onto others to produce healing effects.
Reiki promotes
harmony in body and mind, helping recharge, realign, and rebalance our energy. It can be very effective for treating pain,
depression and emotional problems.
Please note that there are no religious connotations within Reiki.
What
happens during a treatment?
Reiki treatments are received fully clothed.During a treatment, l place my hands on different parts of the body or just above it, to direct
the healing energy to all the vital organs. The whole body is treated, with emphasis on specific problem areas.
