What is Reiki?

• Reiki is a natural, hands-on healing system, and not just a relaxation therapy – although the effects are certainly soothing and uplifting.
• It is a highly powerful and effective form of healing.
• The practitioner channels variable frequency energy using Reiki symbols.
• The energy is electromagnetic in nature and can work on any level: physical, emotional and spiritual.
• Reiki was discovered in Japan by Mikao Usui in the 1900’s. He called it:
• The secret method of inviting happiness.
• The miraculous medicine of all diseases.

What does the word mean?

Literally - Sacred Energy or Spiritual Energy

Rei – is the high frequency Universal energy outside all living things – the highest spiritual consciousness. It is the Highest, Greatest Good, the Divine Spirit, God, the Source, or whatever you choose to name your higher power.

Ki – is the lower frequency Life force energy flowing freely through all living things. If we have an emotional trauma or a physical illness we acquire a blockage. This disturbs the path of the energy through our bodies and we develop an illness.

Reiki works to heal the energy blockages in the body and restore the body back to health, along with healing emotional traumas and basically balancing the mind, body and soul. Reiki can be used on any condition and is also a path to spiritual enlightenment if you choose to develop yourself in that way. Reiki healing can be used to treat all ailments, from torn ligaments to cancer. The outcome may not always be what is expected - but it is always what is needed.
