Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use.
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "lying on hands" on a number of basic and specific locations on the patient’s body. These locations allow the "life force energy" to flow naturally through us, patient and therapist. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
A Reiki session feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind, and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security, and well-being.
In order for the Reiki healing energies to have lasting results, the client must accept responsibility for her/his healing and take an active part in it. Therefore, the Usui system of Reiki is more than the use of the Reiki energy. It must also include an active commitment to improve oneself in order for it to be a complete system.
