Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing.

It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If ones “life force energy” is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress. If it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

The human body is designed to heal itself. When the body is imbalanced, Reiki energy can help the body’s intelligence to heal. The following are a variety of ways that Reiki energy heals and restores the body to its natural state:

• Releases energy blocks which lead to disease and illness

• Helps balance or re-balance the body’s systems

• Amplifies energy and lowers stress

• Gives feelings of comfort and relaxation

• Helps release emotions and assists in the process of releasing grief

• Increases awareness and creativity

• Reduces and eliminates pain

• Helps prevent illness

• Balances energy

Reiki also compliments other healing techniques such as massage therapy, reflexology and chiropractic care. Reiki is also ideal for pre and post-surgery and can shorten healing time.
