Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that
also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying of hands" and is
based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us
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.
The
word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's
Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So
Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."
A
treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance flowing through and
around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions,
mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include
relaxation and feelings of peace, security and well being.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and
self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in
helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a
beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical
or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote
recovery.
