Defining Reiki...

Reiki, pronounced Ray-Key, is an ancient Japanese healing art that was rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui in the late 1800*s. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words: Rei (Ray) meaning spirit, soul, divine, or sacred and Ki (key) meaning life force energy.

This life force is all around us. The energy is inexhaustible, free flowing, and life giving. If the energy is full and flowing, you feel happy, healthy, and have a sense of well-being. You are in balance emotionally, spiritually, and physically. If the energy is low, congested or unbalanced, you are more susceptible to have illness, stress, or pain. Reiki works toward a healing balance. It supports the body's ability to heal itself, promotes deep relaxation, and helps to release emotional and physical blockages.

What is a Reiki Session Like?
 

Reiki is a non-invasive, hands on (or off ) the body, energy treatment, which makes use of the Life Force energy. It is a unique way to balance the entire body's system.

The practitioner uses specific hand positions held over the different energy centers, or chakras, of the body. This allows the receiver's body to utilize the healing attributes of the life force energy. Most people are able to feel a noticeable amount of heat radiating from the giver's hands, which is from the Reiki energy. Many people become so relaxed they easily fall asleep.

Most scheduled sessions are approximately an hour. Clothing should be loose and comfortable. You will remain fully dressed during the session.
