Reiki Healing

Reiki is an ancient Japanese healing method founded by Dr. Mikao Usui. The term "reiki" comes from two Japanese words: rei, meaning universal, and ki, referring to the energy or life force that flows through all beings. In this type of healing, a reiki master channels and directs this flow of energy into areas of the body that are symptomatic or in need of healing and relaxation. The practitioner channels this energy by placing the hands above the body in specific areas based on the energy centers of the body, also known as chakras, and the client's areas of concern. This treatment can involve gentle touch if the client and practitioner agree that it would be beneficial.

Reiki healing promotes calm, pleasant feelings, a sense of security, and relaxation, which aids in the body's natural healing processes. It is not a stand-alone treatment, but rather a complementary treatment that should not take the place of medical advice and care. It can be helpful in the management of many physical and mental health conditions including chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, infertility, pain, digestion problems, anxiety, depression, cancer, and conditions caused by stress. It can support a healthy immune system and improve the body's response to medications.

During a reiki session, you may notice a variety of sensations throughout the body. Some may experience feeling warm as the energy moves through the body. Others may feel tingling, vibrations, or waves of energy. It is not uncommon to become emotional as feelings are processed and released from the body. These sensations are temporary and give way to a sense of deep relaxation and peace. We invite you to treat yourself to this powerful tool for healing!
