What is Reiki?

---

Reiki comes from the Japanese words "rei" and "ki", which mean "universal" and  "life energy". I believe that everything in the universe has this energy flowing through it, and sometimes it can get blocked or out of whack in our bodies. That's when we experience stress, pain, illness or emotional problems.

Reiki practitioners use their hands to channel this universal energy to you, either by touching you lightly or hovering over you. Practitioners can sense where your energy needs some TLC and work on those areas to restore the harmony. You don't have to do anything, just sit back and enjoy the ride. 

Reiki is compatible with any other form of treatment or therapy, so you can use it as a compliment to your existing health care plan. 

It has been around for thousands of years and has been proven by scientific studies to have positive effect on people who receive it. You can find out more about reiki from these sources:
