About Reiki

---

Reiki is a Japanese method of natural healing that is deeply relaxing and revitalizing. Treatments stimulate the human energy field to encourage enhanced, integrated functioning of the body’s natural healing systems.

Pronounced “RAY-key,” Reiki is a form of touch therapy that the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health classifies as “biofield therapy” or “energy medicine.” Because of its simplicity and fast, dramatic results documented in increasing numbers of research studies, Reiki is one of the fastest growing complementary modalities in the world. Reiki is now used not only by individuals but also in hundreds of hospitals, nursing homes, hospices, and spas throughout the world.

During a Reiki treatment, the client lies fully clothed on a massage table. The Reiki practitioner gently places their hands on areas along the endocrine system, major organs, and the chakras, on the front and back of the body or where there is pain. Unlike massage, there is no manipulation of the muscles or tissue.

Reiki helps rid the body of accumulated stress, thereby helping to prevent illness and maintain good health. Clinical studies show that Reiki boosts the immune system, clears toxins, relieves pain, and improves sleep.

For healthy individuals, Reiki is a simple, effective way to relax, relieve stress, and maintain energy. For those with acute or chronic health problems, Reiki is a valuable complementary therapy.
