Reiki is a Japanese healing system developed by Mikao Usui. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word (Rei) which means “Universal Life” and (Ki) which means “Energy. Reiki draws on the universal life force energy that runs through all living things. When this energy is blocked or low it can result in many illnesses or diseases. Through the use of Reiki, one can bring about a deep feeling of relaxation and calmness that can strengthen the body’s own natural healing ability and help heal on many levels – physically, emotionally and mentally. While Reiki is not affiliated with a specific Religion or religious practice, a Reiki session can often be a very spiritual experience.

​Many hospitals, out-patient clinics and holistic healing centers are using Reiki practitioners to enhance their other modalities. Being able to receive Reiki services in many traditional medical centers is an exciting evolution in our current health care climate.

What to expect during a Reiki Session
 
​A Reiki session can be as little as a few minutes up to an hour. It can be done by placing of hands on parts of the body or hands can be held over certain areas of concern, either way it is just as effective. This is always done fully clothed and can be done with the client sitting in a chair or lying on a massage table. Reiki can also be be used in conjunction with essential oils that can be tailored to meet the client's needs or preferences. Crystals and stones can also be used as a further enhancement to your Reiki experience. 
Reiki can also be done from a distance, while the client and the practitioner are in different physical locations. It can transcend time as well, either to a future point in time, such as bringing Reiki energy to a future event like a job interview. Reiki can also be used to go back in time to heal wounds from a traumatic event. Distance healing can be just as effective as an in-person session.
