Reiki is a
holistic
form of energy work, that has become an accepted method of relief in many
hospitals. It is a natural
healing system which uses gentle, non-invasive touch in the areas of the
body which govern all organs, glands, cells, muscles, nerves and blood
circulation. "Reiki" is Japanese and means the life energy of the deepest
part of one's self or soul.
Reiki
unlocks the inner flow of vital energy within
the sender and the receiver.
Reiki
is a scientific method of activating and balancing the
universal life force energy that is present in all living things. It can be
used for balancing the physical, psychological,
emotional and spiritual aspects of the body-- effectively reducing stress,
resolving life issues, speeding surgical and other healing, enhancing
traditional medicine and increasing general well-being.
Reiki is
always available and SAFE to use for any
condition
When receiving Reiki, the energy goes where it is needed,
to the "root" cause of distress or injury. It brings nourishing changes and
awareness in whatever way each person needs it and accepts it at the deepest
part of themselves. It is not necessary to be part of a particular belief
system to accept a Reiki session.
History & Background
Reiki was rediscovered in the mid 1800's by Dr. Mikao Usui,
a Christian Theologian in the Buddhist Sutras. He had been asked by his
students if he could heal as Christ did and realizing that he couldn't,
resigned his position and began his search for the "keys" to healing.
Finally, after three weeks of meditation and fasting on a mountain, he had
an experience. Archetypal symbols came to him to teach him. These are the
power-filled symbols that lead the Reiki practitioner today. The lineage of
traditional Reiki extends from the Reiki Grand Master Dr. Mikao Usui, Dr.
Chujiro Hayashi and Hawayo Takata, a Japanese-American.
