What is Reiki?

Reiki is a spiritual healing practice that originated in Japan. It involves the transfer of universal life energy through the hands of a practitioner to promote relaxation, balance, and well-being. The word "Reiki" itself can be translated as "universal life energy" or "spiritual energy."

During a Reiki session, the recipient lies fully clothed while the practitioner places their hands lightly on or near specific areas of the body. The energy is believed to flow through the practitioner's hands and into the recipient, addressing imbalances and promoting healing on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.

Reiki is based on the concept that an unseen life force energy flows through all living beings and is vital to their well-being. If this energy is low or disrupted, it can lead to illness, stress, or emotional imbalance. By channeling Reiki energy, practitioners aim to remove blockages and restore the harmonious flow of energy, which may support the body's natural healing processes.

Many people find it beneficial for relaxation, stress reduction, and overall well-being.
