What Is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced “Ray-Key”) means REI (”universal”) and KI (our vital life force energy).

The existence of this “life force energy” has been verified by scientific experiments, and medical practitioners are now considering the role it plays in proper functioning of the immune system. If your life force “flow” to the body’s vital organs and cells is restricted, you will be more vulnerable to illness. Responsive to thoughts and feelings, the life force can also become disrupted when we consciously or unconsciously allow negativity to attach itself to our energy field.

How Does Reiki Work?

Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field, charging them with positive energy.

As Reiki raises one’s vibratory level in and around the physical body, energy associated with negative thoughts or feelings breaks apart and falls away. In so doing, Reiki clears and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.

What Will I Experience?

Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of healing and self-improvement that everyone can use.

In a standard treatment, energy flows from the practitioner’s hands in a series of positions surrounding the client’s fully-clothed body. While experiences vary, people generally enjoy a sense of deep relaxation and radiance that flows through and around them. Because the Reiki energy encourages one to let go of all tension, anxiety, fear or other negative feelings – some even drift off to sleep or report floating outside their bodies.

On occasion, toxins that have been stored in the body get released into the blood stream to be filtered by the liver and kidneys. When this happens, a headache, stomach ache or feelings of weakness can ensue. If so, it is wise to drink more water, eat lighter meals and get more rest. The body is cleansing as part of the healing process – a good sign.
