Reiki
Reiki (pronounced "ray-key") is a form of hands-on healing as developed by Dr. Mikao Usui in Kyoto, Japan. Reiki means universal life force, an unlimited energy source that is all around us. Reiki can be channeled through the application of gentle hands-on touch to energy pathways of the body to strengthen individual vitality on the physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual plane.
The benefits of reiki treatment range from stress reduction to aiding recovery from acute and chronic conditions. It is frequently administered in conjunction with medical treatment to alleviate trauma or illness and to serve as a catalyst to the body's own healing process.
The Reiki Experience
Reiki treatment generally takes the form of a bodywork session that lasts about an hour and a half. During the bodywork, the recipient remains fully clothed and lies on a massage table first face up then face down. The hands-on touch is gentle and aims to transmit universal life force to the recipient, rather than to manipulate muscle tissue; which is why reiki should not be confused with massage.
The practitioner uses both hands, and proceeds in a pattern over the recipient's body. After the front surface has been treated, the client turns and the treatment continues on the back.
Experience of a reiki session differs from person to person. Each individual's perception of how the energy transfer feels will vary, but it is commonly agreed that reiki offers a relaxing and refreshing experience.
It is recommended that first-time recipients receive three or four treatments as close together as the recipient can manage, within a two week period, in order to deepen the process of healing.
Benefits of Reiki
Reiki gives recipients a sense of overall well-being. Since reiki also allows the recipient to enter a state of deep relaxation, it is particularly beneficial in the treatment of stress and stress-related illnesses. Reiki is also considered helpful in debilitating disease because it supplies energy and strengthens the immune system.
Your well-being is by far your most valuable asset. Cherish and celebrate it with reiki! Here is your opportunity to experience a time-tested pathway to greater well-being. The reiki treatment used is the traditional Usui Shiki Ryoho system of natural healing, which was passed along to you in a direct lineage from its creator Dr. Mikao Usui.
