Reiki

The Healing Touch

 

 

The word Reiki comes from two Japanese words – Rei and Ki.  They are shown in the symbol above.  Rei is the upper character and Ki is the lower character.

"Rei" means universal, meaning that it is present everywhere. 

"Ki" is life energy or vital life force or universal life force.  This is the energy that animates every living thing.

Reiki is administered by “laying on of hands.”

 

Reiki is helpful for stress reduction and relaxation through the tuning up of the energy systems of the body.  It is not a modality that takes the place of medical treatment, but it is complementary to medical treatment in that it

 enhances the body's ability to respond more fully to traditional modes of healing.

"Reiki Treatment" is a powerful but gentle means of providing access to the unlimited energy inside us.  It is a special way of directing our internal high vibrational energy to restore balance, harmony and healing into our lives.
