What is Reiki?
(Pronounced “Ray-key“)
All living things are made of energy, which naturally flows freely. However, life experiences, including stress and trauma, can cause this energy to become congested or blocked. When energy is low, it can make it harder to cope with stress, affect sleep, and increase susceptibility to illness. Reiki helps to recharge, balance, and restore the flow of life force energy, as well as clear and strengthen the Auric field.
Reiki is a technique that increases the body’s life force energy and supports its natural healing abilities. It helps to promote balance in the body, mind, and spirit, and can be practiced through self-treatment or treatment of others. Reiki, originating in early 20th-century Japan with Mikao Usui as its recognized founder, is safe, gentle, and non-invasive. It serves as a powerful self-care practice and a tool to “jumpstart” the body’s healing abilities, similar to clearing a traffic jam on an energy highway.
What is a session like?

Reiki is administered by a trained practitioner with the client lying fully clothed on a massage table, typically for 45 minutes to an hour and a half. The practitioner places their hands at specific locations around the head, shoulders, abdomen, and legs, either lightly touching or slightly away from the body. No tissue manipulation is involved.
During the session, Reiki energy flows from the practitioner’s hands into the client’s body and energy field, promoting feelings of relaxation, peace, and well-being, which encourage healing. The primary goals of Reiki are deep relaxation and stress reduction. The practitioner serves as a vessel for divinely guided life force energy, which is shared through light touch or by “beaming” over the body.
