Reiki is a energy healing system dating back to early 20th century Japan, where it was founded by Mikao Usui. It is considered a technique of deep relaxation and stress reduction that creates a healing environment in the body. Within this healing environment the flow of Reiki energy stimulates the body's natural healing processes, bringing relief to physical, emotional/psychological, and mental a
ilments of various natures and degrees. Reiki treatments are safe, gentle, and non-invasive; if necessary they can be done completely hands-off! These treatments carry absolutely NO side effects and can never be harmful. While these treatments are not intended to replace traditional medical treatment they can be remarkably complimentary, in some cases reducing the intensity of more traditional treatments. The treatments involve the gentle laying-on-of-hands of the practitioner upon the recipient (if touch makes you uncomfortable the same effects can be achieved by simply hovering the hands over the body) on the main energy centers of the body, sometimes known as chakras. Reiki clears obstructions and strengthens the flow of energy through the body's chakras, bringing healing and benefits. Using and receiving Reiki helps maintain health and helps heal illness and injuries
