Reiki is a natural system of energy healing. The treatment is performed by placing the hands on or near the person being treated. The reiki practitioner will allow the flow of reiki energy to run through them and into the person receiving the reiki while placing their hands on or over certain areas in the body. It is a gentle technique that treats the whole person, body, mind and spirit.

The word reiki (pronounced ray-key) is made up of two separate meanings, rei – ki

REI – Literally translated means “higher power”. This can mean what ever you want it to mean, whether this is from god, the divine, a higher purpose, the universe or who ever suits you best.

KI – This is the life force energy we all have, we all have KI, everything has Ki and everything on the planet and universe is made up of KI (energy)

You may have heard of this KI before as is related to other practices such as Chinese medicine, martial arts and other holistic practices.

It is not the practitioner that generates the energy, the practitioner is only a willing vessel to allow the energy to enter and pass through and out for the higher good. Practising reiki will NOT deplete the person’s energy supplies.

Reiki can be used to alleviate suffering of physical, emotional or mental problems. It is not a promise that reiki will cure or completely rid of the ailment. However, it can Help the body to heal itself and alleviate what it can.

Performing reiki can not do any harm and can not make a person worse, so never be frightened of this. However if you are ever in any doubt about practising reiki, trust your gut instinct or get in touch with your reiki master.

A reiki healing will treat the person as a whole including their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing. The treatment will bring the whole entire body into harmony and balance. It removes physical toxins from the body and cleanses every charka helping to promote relaxation and reduce stress.
