What is Reiki?
Reiki is a form of Japanese energy healing, in which the practitioner transfers energy to the recipient through the palms of their hands. Written as a traditional Japanese Kanji, the word Reiki is composed of two parts. Rei means "Spirit", "Higher Power", or "God's Wisdom" and "Ki" refers to life force energy, or the energy that gives us life. The concept of "Ki" is not unique to Japanese culture, as life force energy is also one of the founding principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine. While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. Reiki has no dogma and there is nothing you must believe in order to use Reiki.
During a session, the practitioner channels Universal energy to flow through their bodies, eventually exiting through their hands. Because the hands serve as an exit point, Reiki sessions often rely on the ‘laying on of hands’, in which the practitioner either places their hands just above or lightly rests them on the recipient’s body, specifically the seven chakra points. This connection allows the energy to flow through from practitioner to recipient. This flow activates the innate healing power of the recipient's body.
Reiki treats the whole person, including body, emotions, mind and spirit--creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security, and well-being. A Reiki practitioner is not a doctor and will not diagnose any medical conditions.
