REI (ray) KI (kee)

Reiki is a form of alternative healing therapy that originated in Japan. The word "Reiki" is derived from two Japanese words: "rei" meaning "universal"," and "ki" meaning "life force energy". This universal life force energy flows through all living beings and has the ability to promote healing and balance on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels.

About Reiki Energy

Reiki energy is channelled by the practitioner placing hands lightly on or near the recipient's body, allowing the energy to flow through them to the recipient. The practitioner acts as a conduit, facilitating the energy transfer to help restore harmony and promote well-being. It is important to note that Reiki is not affiliated with any specific religious or spiritual belief system.

​

Reiki is often used as a complementary therapy to conventional medical treatments.
