Reiki

A gentle modality wherein universal life energy is channeled through the practitioner into the client. The energy then goes to the problem - which is not always the symptom. Very effective for people who are in a place of emotional processing/clearing or are uncomfortable with a regular massage due to personal reasons or pain levels. Classes to learn how to perform Reiki are also available.

What Is Reiki (pronounced RAY-KEE)?

Thought to have originated in Tibet thousands of years ago, this ancient healing process was rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui. Reiki is a Japanese word meaning "universal life force". When the word Reiki is broken down, "REI" means Universal Energy and "KI" means Fundamental Life Force.

How Does Reiki Work?

Since Reiki is an energy that comes from the highest source, it has its own intelligence and knows exactly where to go and what to do. It is self-directing and therefore brings healing to whatever level the body may need. It can never do any harm.

What Makes Reiki Different From Other Healing Methods?

The Attunement, also known as the initiation process, which creates a Reiki channel. After the attunement you are able to use this energy at any time or place for as long as you live. The ability to channel Reiki does not wear off, even if you stop using it. Whenever you want to use Reiki, just thinking about it or holding your hands out will activate it.

Healing And Curing

"Healing" does not mean "curing". Curing means to completely eradicate an illness or disease while healing can occur on many different levels.

What Does A Reiki Treatment Feel Like?

You feel very relaxed and peaceful as the energy flows through your body. The Reiki Treatment:

You lie fully clothed on the table (remove shoes and jewellery)
I may touch your body or have my hands a few inches above your body. Your body draws the amount of energy it requires. I am never drained in the treatment process and most importantly, you do not inherit any of "my energy" (especially negative energy). Each person has different needs and will draw the energy accordingly. Reiki is pulled by the client rather than pushed by the practitioner
You may or may not feel any sensation. All outcomes are different for every treatment and results vary from individual to individual. Sometimes during the treatment, you may feel energy of warmth, stress or emotional release, muscle twitches or a feeling of deep relaxation

What Are The Benefits Of Reiki?

The benefits are countless. Remember that Reiki can never do any harm. To name a few:

Reiki promotes healing on emotional, mental and spiritual levels. You may experience a wonderful radiance and deep relaxation as the healing energy soothes and regenerates your entire being
One of the greatest benefits of Reiki is the "Self Treatment". Once a person is attuned (initiated), one need only have the intention to perform Reiki on oneself and the energy is immediately drawn through

'Rei' means universal and 'ki' means life force. In different systsems of thought, Ki is also known as Chi, Prana, Mana, Wakan, Eckancar, and Bioplasmic Energy. Reiki is a gentle method of energy balance and renewal. It is a simple, gentle and effective way of bringing in universal life energy to enhance healing and growth for mind, body and spirit. Through the hands of a Reiki practitioner, the energy is transferred and used by the receiver. The Reiki practitioner is a channel, attuned to the energy by a Reiki Master. Reiki has a mind of its own. It goes where it is needed and does what is needed. This is a great way to receive bodywork for those individuals who are not able or willing to be massaged. Sessions can be with one practitioner or two. Clients also have the option of having vibrational harmonics added to a session with two practitioners.
