REIKI

Many ancient cultures, including the Japanese, Chinese, Indians, and Egyptians, embraced the belief that life energy flowed through the body deeply affecting our bodies, minds and emotions. Current research strongly suggests that energy does extend throughout and beyond the physical body and that disruptions or imbalances in its flow correlate to physical, mental and emotional illnesses. The healing art of Reiki (pronounced ‘RAY-key’) addresses these imbalances to support your good health and well-being

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning universal life energy. It is a non-intrusive method of hands-on healing that taps into the energy referred to by philosophers and martial artists as ki in Japan, chi in China and prana in India. The practice of Reiki is based on the teachings of a Japanese man, Mikao Usui, who taught and practiced Reiki in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century’s. Research into the source of Usui’s work points to ancient Buddhist sutras and teachings of great Eastern masters, as well as his own meditation practice.

Usui put his inspiration to good use—over the next century Reiki spread throughout Japan, and then the world. Reiki is not massage, hypnosis, or a tool for diagnosing illness. Reiki is a technique that triggers the body’s natural healing abilities. Reiki healing is a natural therapy and a pure energy form that promotes balance and the normal regenerative processes of the body and mind, especially when combined with the sincere desire of a willing recipient. Reiki improves both physical and emotional health and enhances the quality of life.
