Reiki is believed to have originated
in Tibet thousands of years ago, and
current Reiki practice can be traced
to the spiritual teachings of Mikao
Usui in Japan during the early 20th
century.
Reiki is a subtle and effective form
of energy healing which brings
about healing on physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual levels.
Reiki is based on the philosophy
that there is a universal energy that
supports the body's inherent selfhealing
abilities.
Reiki Practitioners seek
to access this energy,
allowing it to flow to the
body and facilitate the
healing process.
REIKI
is an ancient hands-on technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes
healing. It is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through every
living being and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s “life force energy” is low then we
are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being
happy and healthy.
Anyone can benefit from a Reiki treatment whether ill or not.

next position. The hand positions
usually give a general coverage of
the head, the front and back of the
torso, knees and feet. A treatment
can last from 45 to 90 minutes.
The recipient often feels warmth or
tingling in the area being treated,
