What is Reiki?

Reiki is  a gentle method of healing which taps into universal life force energy. This energy is known as ki in Japan, prana in India, and ase in Yoruba cultures.

Reiki practice is based upon the teachings of Mikao Usui, who taught and practiced these techniques in Japan during the early twentieth century.

Physical, mental, and emotional illness can all be addresses by Reiki in order to bring balance to one’s whole being.

When you come to receive a reiki session you will lie on a table or sit in a special chair. You will remain fully clothed and should dress comfortably.

The practitioner will then lay her hands either on or above the body in several hand positions. Any areas of concern that you have can be concentrated on in the reiki session. The energy will then flow through the practitioner to your body.

Afterwards you may feel deep relaxation and calm. Recipients have felt effects ranging from very subtle to  deeply profound. People can also feel emotional reactions after a session. This is normal and can be shared with the practitioner if you feel comfortable.
