Reiki
Reiki is a spiritual healing art form that originated in Japan close to 3000
years ago. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word “Rei”
which means "Universal Life" and “Ki” which means "Energy".
Reiki is the life energy that flows through all living
things. Ideally, one’s "Ki" or energy should be strong and
free flowing, nourishing and revitalizing the body and mind.
By easing tension and stress that often block the natural
flow of energy, Reiki assists the body in creating an
environment that facilitates healing on all levels --
physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Reiki is not a
cure for a disease or illness. It is used to complement
traditional medicine and is practiced in many hospitals and
medical care settings. Sessions are very pleasant, soothing,
and invigorating. You might experience a warming sensation
or a tingling during the session, or nothing but sheer
relaxation. Our Reiki sessions last for 60 minutes with time
allotted to discuss any particular concerns you might have
or health issues you might be experiencing. You will be
asked to remove your shoes and rest comfortably on a message
table. The Reiki Practitioner will move through specific
Reiki hand positions beginning at your head or feet. Reiki
is not a massage, but rather gentle hand placements on or
above the energy centers of the body. |
