Reiki is a spiritual healing art with its roots in Japanese origin. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word (Rei) which means "Universal Life" and (Ki) which means "Energy". Reiki is not affiliated with any particular religion or religious practice. It is not massage nor is it based on belief or suggestion. It is a subtle and effective form of energy healing using spiritually guided life force energy. Reiki is the life energy that flows through all living things.
Reiki is a great tool for stress reduction and relaxation. Many people use Reiki for wellness, not just to assist in healing. On a physical level, Reiki can help relieve pain, accelerate healing of wounds or broken bones, and instill a sense of deep relaxation. On an emotional and/or spiritual level, anxiety can be reduced and a sense of revitalization or renewal can occur. Reiki is not a cure for a disease or illness, but it may assist the body in creating a healing environment for itself. Reiki is a wonderful complement to traditional medicine as it is holistic in nature and will not interfere with any drug, diagnosis or belief system. Reiki works toward long-term improvement by helping people address, heal and release issues that lead to their problem. Reiki gives the power to heal to the recipient themselves.
