Reiki orignated in Japan. It was rediscovered in the late 19th century by Dr Mikao Usui, and is a technique for relaxation and stress reduction that promotes happiness and peace of mind.
Reiki is a Japanese word - pronounced 'ray-key' - that means Universal Life Force. This Life Force energy is all around and within us. Sometimes our energy is low and we feel depleted. This can make us feel ill-tempered or more depressed than usual, and maybe even physically, emotionally or spiritually drained.
Reiki allows you to absorb more life force energy, it revitalises you and balances the energies in your body. This increase in energy can improve sleep and moods, helping you to settle into a more balanced state. It is a simple, natural and safe method of healing which is available to everyone and everything, even your pets.
Reiki is given by gently laying-on hands or sent across time and space with a distance treatment. For those who do not like, or cannot to be touched, Reiki can be given with the hands hovering over the body. The outcome is the same, whether you are on the couch in person or having a distant session, Reiki treats the whole person - body, mind, emotions and spirit - leaving you with a feeling of calm and peace.
