ABOUT REIKI...



REIKI (pronounced Ray Key) is a Japanese word meaning 'Universal Life Force Energy'.

This energy or 'ki', as it is known in Japan, has been recognised in the East for centuries as being vital to our health and well being. When our Life Force energy is flowing freely we feel happy, uplifted and healthy. When our energy is low or becomes blocked, we become more prone to stress, depression and illness.

The Reiki system of healing was developed by Dr Mikao Usui in Japan at the end of the 19th century, after many years researching ancient healing techniques. The traditions of Reiki have been passed down over the years from teacher to student, and have since spread worldwide. A teacher of Reiki (either male or female), who is qualified to attune others, is known as a Reiki Master.

A Reiki session usually lasts about an hour and takes place either sitting or lying down, fully clothed.
The practitioner will place their hands lightly on the body in various positions. This allows the 'Ki' energy to be drawn through them to wherever it is needed in the person being treated. This flow of energy may be felt as a mild tingling sensation, warmth, coolness, or maybe nothing at all at the time. There is usually a feeling of deep relaxation during and after a session, the positive effects maybe lasting several days.

Reiki treats the person as a whole, activating the body's own self healing processes and helping to bring balance mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, as well as relieving physical symptoms and clearing out toxins from the body. It is a gentle, popular and non-intrusive therapy, which can be safely given to children, adults of all ages and even pets. As a complementary therapy, Reiki can be used alongside conventional medicine or other natural therapies.
Practitioners will sometimes combine Reiki with other aspects of healing, such as the use of colour or crystals.

Generally, a Reiki practitioner will either have been trained and attuned to Reiki 2nd Degree (Level 2), or will be a Reiki Master, who teaches and attunes others to practise, as well as giving treatments themselves.
