Reiki (Holistic Health)

Reiki involves the practitioner directly placing their hands on the client and allowing loving energy to flow to the client. Dr. KiKao Usui, a Japanese Buddhist, founded the practice after a life-long quest to discover how Jesus and his disciples healed people. Rei is Japanese for “wisdom of God” and Ki means “vital force”. Ki is like chi in Chinese and prana in Hindu. Reiki masters teach practitioners. It is believed that the healing energy that flows into a client is from The Holy Spirit and is spiritually guided so only love and goodness can flow to the client.


Reiki (Massage)

Buddhist in nature, reiki (pronounced “ray-key”) is the combining of universal energy with individual energy to open pathways of healing. It teaches that disease is not separate from the body; it is the body out of balance. Rediscovered by Japanese Buddhist and Christian scholar of theology Mikao Usui around 1921, this energy healing method involves placing the hands on or just above the body in order to align chakras and bring healing energy to organs and glands. The practitioner, trained to access and serve as a channel for the life energy, uses a passive touch that some clients experience as a warmth or tingling. The hands remain in position for 3 to 5 minutes, alternately covering 10 to 12 positions over the body. Treatments work by dissolving or eliminating toxic energy and substances from many levels of one’s being, whether it is physical, emotional, or mental. This works to strengthen the harmonic flow of energy within the body. The three levels of training in the initiation process of becoming a reiki master are referred to as attunement levels. Through this training, the practitioner reaches a level where she can access energy flow through the hands to heal herself and others. Click here to find a Reiki practitioner.
