What is Reiki?
Reiki is an ancient system of natural healing that was rediscovered in Japan in the early twentieth century.
The ‘Rei’ part of the name means universal spiritual wisdom and the ‘Ki’ part means life force, so it can be defined as Spiritually Guided Universal Life Force.
A Reiki practitioner is attuned to this life force energy and transfers it by placing their hands on or above the client’s body in certain positions, allowing free-flowing Reiki energy to pass through the client.
This universal energy balances and harmonises all aspects of the person, the mind, the emotions, the body and the spirit. It is a truly holistic approach!
Reiki energy naturally flows to the areas where it is needed. Therefore, each Reiki treatment is different, catering to the unique needs of the individual, enabling each to receive the correct amount of energy to restore balance within.
