Reiki is an alternative therapy which was developed by Japanese Buddhist Mikao Usui, in 1922. A loose translation of the term is “universal life energy” - and in fact Reiki practitioners work with “ki” or “life force” energy. What exactly is Reiki? It’s a form of gentle hands-on healing which works with the body’s energy meridians and the chakra system. The practitioner acts as a channel for the universal energy, which can to balance your energy field and restore harmony to your body. There is a set sequence of points for a practitioner to follow….and yet Reiki is very intuitive. One point may need 20 seconds to balance while another may require 2 minutes. Sometimes you can skip over a point which is already in balance. You as the client simply lay back and relax. You’ll want to wear comfortable clothing to a treatment and of course we’ll talk about any specific concerns or areas of tension you’re dealing with before we start. I’ve taken the training required to become a Reiki Master.

In my experience, people find the treatments very relaxing and enjoyable. Different clients have different experiences and some people can even doze off during a treatment. When your chakras are properly balanced and the energy is flowing through your meridian points in harmony, you cannot help but feel better and more refreshed. The benefits of Reiki are many: call me and we’ll discuss how this form of treatment can benefit you!
