REIKI

What is Reiki?

The word Reiki comes from a combination of two Japanese words: “Rei” pronounced “ray” which means spiritually guided wisdom. “Ki” pronounced “key” which means life-force energy. The energy used in Reiki or the “Reiki Energy” allows the body to heal and balance itself by changing or shifting the energy flow in the body.

 

Reiki Healing directs spiritually-guided, life force energy through a Reiki therapist to the client as they relax on a therapy table or in a chair if they are not able to lie down. Reiki can be given anytime, anywhere, to anyone or anything in the same room or another place; state or country.

 

Reiki is not associated with any religions or religious teachings from any eastern or western cultures. Dr Usui, the founder, used methods and realizations for Reiki following a spiritual experience that he had when he was on Mt. Kumara, in Japan. Reiki moved to the western world in the mid – 1900’s, with Usui Reiki teachings as the main guide.  

 

Reiki can be, and often is, used in conjunction with other natural therapies such as crystals and sound waves.  The different energies combine to enhance their therapeutic benefits.

 

 What conditions can Reiki help with?

Virtually anything and everything.  Obviously it is not able to cure all conditions, but it can ease the pain and burden of most problems.  Those faced with terminal diseases often find that the stress and distress is greatly eased and they benefit from the relaxing one to one sessions that Reiki offers.

 People with stressed related conditions do benefit greatly from Reiki healings, though this cannot be guaranteed.

Under no circumstances would we ever advocate a client giving up the traditional treatments offered by medical doctors.  Reiki and Crystals are used in conjunction with and not instead of traditional therapies.  

 Many pregnant women enjoy the benefits of Reiki and have reported they have had lovely tempered and placid babies – this cannot be guaranteed though!
