About Reiki

During a session, a Reiki practitioner lightly places their hands on the person, or sometimes just above them, to direct energy and help the body heal itself. Distant Reiki* works the same way. I am the channel through which the energy flows.

Dr. Mikau Usui, after many years of study, discovered a way of accessing and using this healing energy. The Japanese word Reiki is translated as universal life-force energy. Rei (Ray) is translated as sacred, soul, spirit, or the wisdom and knowledge of all the Universe. Ki (Kee) is the life-force energy which flows through every living thing (plants, animals, and people) and which is present in some form in everything around us…even in rocks.

This Japanese healing art and complementary energy therapy is based on the principle that everything in the universe consists of energy that flows around and through living beings. Reiki proposes that disruption to this energy may cause health problems and seeks to restore the balance of the energy flow to a person by sending the energy flow received by the universe.

Think of your body’s energy like a river. When the river is flowing freely, everything is in balance and harmony. But when there’s a blockage in the river, it can cause disruptions downstream. During a Reiki session, the practitioner is the channel through which the energy works to remove these blockages and restore the flow of energy, whatever is for your highest and greatest good.
