Developed in Japan more than a century ago by a Buddhist monk, Reiki is an energy healing practice that seeks to remove blocks in the flow of energy in the body. The term Reiki comes from the Japanese words “rei” (universal) and “ki” (life energy). Reiki practitioners believe that energy can stagnate in the body as a result of an injury or emotional pain. Energy medicine such as Reiki, acupuncture, or acupressure, is intended to promote relaxation, relieve pain, speed healing, and reduce other symptoms of illness. During a Reiki session, you remain fully clothed and lie on a padded table while the Reiki practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above your body. Reiki healing energy is naturally transferred from the provider to you based on what your body needs. Benefits of Reiki Relieves stress, fatigue, and tension Brings total relaxation to the body, mind, and spirit Helps with sleep issues Decreases or eliminates pain Stimulates the immune system Increases levels of hemoglobin, a carrier of oxygen in the blood Supports and accelerates the body’s natural ability to heal.
