What is Reiki ?
Reiki is a safe, simple and effective method of natural healing and self-improvement, that works well in conjunction with other treatments or therapies.
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - "rei" which means both universal in the sense of omnipresent and all-encompassing, and also spiritual wisdom. And "ki" which is
life force energy; the vital life force within everything alive. So Reiki can be translated as "spiritually guided life force ".
Reiki is also the one-word descriptive name for an Art of Natural Healing which was discovered and developed about one hundred years ago in Japan by Dr. Mikao Usui.
Reiki is a way of experiencing healing energy in daily life, it restores health and harmony to the body, mind, heart and soul. Reiki is not a religion or belief system, it is about focusing and directing energy to accelerate a body’s own holistic ability to heal itself physically and emotionally.
