Reiki is a natural and powerful, yet safe and gentle, hands-on healing art that restores a person’s life, freedom, balance, and well-being in a much fuller way than ever experienced before. It is a Japanese term that means “Universal Life Energy” and is the pure, positive, creative energy that is around and within all living things. It accelerates the normal healing process because it addresses all levels – physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual – thereby allowing the opportunity to fully heal any situation by getting to its’ origin preventing future occurrence of a chronic situation.

It enhances rather than interferes with medical procedures such as surgery, psychotherapy, or medication and is widely recommended for stress, allergies, asthma, ulcers, back pain, migraine headaches, disease prevention, phobias, abuse, and trauma.

All of the disease in our life is simply energy we have held onto in a negative way. This treatment provides the opportunity for the body to release the trapped energy and replace it with pure, positive energy. This Natural Healing technique is a wonderful gift we can give ourselves and comes into our lives at a time when we are ready for healing.

The person receiving the treatment, which lasts about an hour, should be dressed in loose, comfortable clothing and simply lies down on a massage table. Although you don’t have to believe in Reiki for it to work, there is a need to be open and willing to allow the energy exchange to take place, that is, to release the trapped energy and to bring in the positive energy, therefore creating balance.

The practitioner uses specific hand positions on certain areas of the body in which the channeled energy is drawn through the practitioners’ hands and into the person’s body in the quantities and areas it is needed. The amount of energy exchange depends on how much trapped energy the person is able and willing to release at that particular time, therefore, preventing one from receiving too much.

Most people experience a deep sense of calmness and relaxation, safety and support, comfort, warmth, stress relief, pain and worries, a feeling of being nurtured and unconditional acceptance, while also receiving in-depth physical healing, emotional healing, mental healing, and spiritual healing.

With regular treatments, this energy is able to work towards deeper levels creating the changes a person is looking for in order to have an ongoing sense of good health and inner harmony in one’s daily life.
