General Info

Reiki (pronounced Ray-key) is a Japaneses word meaning Universal Life Energy, an energy which is all around us. This energy or "ki" flows through the body. Blockage of ki results in forms of mental, physical, and emotional disease. Reiki helps restore the flow of ki which allows the body to stay in balance both physically and emotionally. Reiki is a form of healing and spiritual awakening, recieved and developed 100 years ago in Japan by Dr. Mikao Usui and brought to the west via Hawaii in 1937. There is no belief system attached to Reiki so anyone can recieve or learn to give a Reiki treatment, the only prerequisite is the desire to be healed. Reiki healing can be given anywhere and at any time as no special equipment is needed. The practitioner is a channel which the energy is drawn through by the need or imbalance in the recipient. Reiki flows to the areas of need, soothing pain and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself. Reiki restores balance in one's life.
