Reiki originated in Japan in the early 20th century. The word means “Universal Life Energy” in Japanese. It is form of “hands on healing” which works on balancing areas of blocked energy. Reiki is not massage. It is a completely non-invasive treatment where the practitioner, acts as a channel allowing healing energy to pass to the recipient by resting his/her hands gently on the body of the recipient (who remains fully clothed throughout) in a number of positions working down the body. Some people feel heat from the practitioner’s hands during the process or other feelings such as tingling or floating. The therapist will ask the client few questions at the start of the treatment and will generally not speak during the session, there will usually be some background music to enable the client to relax and let their mind drift. Most people find a session of Reiki deeply comforting and reassuring. It works on both emotional and physical levels to reactivate the body’s own healing abilities. It is a very calming treatment and can help still the mind, reduce stress and assist relaxation both emotionally and physically. Reiki is beneficial for everyone and will not interfere in any way with conventional treatments. Practitioners:
