Reiki Healing
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese spiritual healing or complementary therapy relating to energy healing.
It works with the energy fields around the body and involves the transfer of universal energy from the practitioner’s palms to the client.
The word “Reiki” means “mysterious atmosphere, miraculous sign.” It comes from the Japanese words “rei,” meaning universal, and “ki,” meaning life energy.
This tradition was founded by Mikao Usui in the early 20th century and evolved as a result of his research, experience and dedication.
