The word Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) is Japanese and means "universal life force energy". A simple and profound method of healing, a Reiki practitioner places her hands on or above the client's fully clothed body and directs healing. This loving energy flows gently through the client, supporting her not only physically, but also mentally and emotionally. Reiki soothes and relaxes, balances the energy field, and supports the body's natural ability to heal itself.
What is a Reiki Session Like?
A client experiencing Reiki typically feels tremendously relaxed during a session. Many will feel heat emanating from the practitioner's hands, similar to a heating pad. Others feel a tingling sensation or notice that pain they had dissipates while receiving Reiki.
Reiki will differ for each individual. This energy can be tremendously supportive for one's mind, body and spirit.
