What is Reiki?

 

Reiki is a Japanese word representing Universal Life Energy the energy which is all around us.

 

 

Reiki is an ancient art of natural healing, rediscovered in Japan, over one hundred years ago.

 

 

What is described as Reiki The Usui System of Natural Healing can be defined as follows.

 

 

• It is a gentle, but powerful "hands on" technique which brings wholeness to both recipient and giver.

• It restores the natural balance in the body.

 

• It provides deep relaxation, thus evoking a sense of peace and well-being.

• It works on emotions, mind and spirit, as well as the physical body.

 

• It complements, but, does not substitute, the healing properties of all modalities including orthodox medical treatment, natural therapies, massage, psychotherapy etc.

• In can be given in conjunction with any other treatment.

 

• It is not intrusive, since the Reiki energy will pass through clothing, bandages, braces, plaster casts etc, so that no disrobing is necessary.

• It has no connection with any religion, cult, dogma, or special belief system and does not involve hypnosis or massage.

 

• The technique can be used, not only on people, but also on animals and plants.

• To benefit from Reiki, you need only to be open, and willing, to receive the energy.
