What is Reiki?
Reiki is an ancient tradition that uses universal life energy to support
the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Reiki traces its roots back
to what is now Tibet; originating around 3,000 B.C., Reiki
is a natural healing method that uses the hands of a healer to channel
energy to another person. It
has been practiced for thousands of years.
A Japanese scholar, Dr. Mikao Usui, rediscovered the lost art in the 19th
century. He passed on his
knowledge
to others, who have since spread Reiki around the world.
Reiki is a Japanese word derived from Rei, meaning
“Universal” and Ki meaning “the vital life force”. These
Japanese characters, when combined, present the concept
of “Universal
Life-force Energy.” Reiki
can be defined as the art of activating, applying and balancing the
universal life force energy that dwells within every living being, animal
or plant.
Reiki
is a holistic form of healing and works on Mind, Body and Spirit. It works
on the mental, physical, emotional
and spiritual levels at the same time.
The term “healing” refers to the balancing of energy in the body so
that it
may heal itself. Reiki brings many benefits including:

In order to practice Reiki a person must be
attuned to the energy by a Reiki Master. In most people the
innate life
force energy is weak and unfocused. This energy is progressively
strengthened and focused by attunement into
the three levels or degrees of
Reiki described in the Workshops page. A typical healing session is
