Reiki is a form of alternative therapy commonly referred to as energy healing. When combined with more traditional therapies, Reiki can be complementary as it works on the subtle level of the body (at a spiritual, energetic level) activating the body’s own innate healing response; initiating mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Reiki originated in Japan as a technique for stress reduction. It’s based on the idea that there is an unseen “Life Force Energy” flowing within and around us, creating the ability to sustain life. When our LFE is low, we are more likely to feel sick or stressed. When our LFE is high, we are more naturally vibrant, healthy, and happy.
The word Reiki is comprised of two Japanese symbols (Rei and Ki) which translate to “God’s Wisdom or the Higher Power” and “Life Force Energy”, in essence “spiritually guided life force energy”. Reiki is most commonly utilized in therapy when a client feels “blocked” and unable to move forward. Reiki can be sent/administered at a distance and is thereby a useful tool for Telehealth. Typically, clients are guided into a relaxed state of being while the Reiki is being transmitted. Some people experience a sensation of warmth within or around the body. Some people experience a tingling sensation. Other people feel a sense of deep relaxation. Some people experience profound wisdom and insight.
Reiki treats all aspects of a person: body, mind, emotions, and spirit, leading to benefits which include relaxation, peace, security, and well-being. In summary, Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of self-improvement which everyone can use. It works well in conjunction with more traditional medical/healing treatments to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
