What is Reiki?
Restoring Balance to Body, Mind, and Spirit
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) translates to "universal life energy." Developed in Japan by Mikao Usui, it centers on the idea that energy flows through all living things. When this energy is blocked by stress or trauma, we feel "off." Reiki helps restore that flow.
How It Works
During a session, the practitioner gently places hands on or just above specific areas. It doesn't rely on physical manipulation. Instead, it focuses on the body's energetic system to encourage self-healing.
What to Expect
Most clients describe sensations of warmth or gentle waves of energy. It is a versatile practice that complements traditional medicine, offering emotional clarity, stress relief, and a profound sense of peace.
