Reiki

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese healing technique developed in the early 20th century by Mikao Usui. The word "Reiki" comes from two Japanese words: Rei (universal) and Ki (life energy). It involves the gentle laying of hands on or near the body to channel universal life energy, promoting balance and healing.

Reiki works on the principle that life energy flows through us, and when this energy is low or blocked, we are more susceptible to stress and illness. By restoring the flow of energy, Reiki supports the body's natural ability to heal itself.

What to Expect

During a Reiki session, you'll lie fully clothed on a comfortable treatment table. Your practitioner will gently place their hands on or just above various positions on your body. You may feel warmth, tingling, or a deep sense of peace and relaxation.

Many clients report feeling as though they're floating, and some experience emotional release or vivid imagery. There is no "wrong" way to experience Reiki — whatever you feel is exactly right for you.
