What is Reiki?

The Usui system of Reiki is the most simple and natural healing method we know.

Reiki is the process of channelling the Universal Life Force through the hands.  Reiki helps to heal the body, mind and spirit.  It does this by accelerating the body’s own ability to heal itself physically and by opening the mind to the emotional and spiritual causes of dis-ease and pain.   
 
The flow of energy is experienced mostly as heat by both the person channelling the energy and those receiving, but it may also be experienced as a fine tingling, a tremor, and in cases of extreme need, a deep chill.

Most people having REIKI treatment become aware of tension dropping away while the ever chattering mind becomes still.  A deep sense of relaxation and an overall sense of well-being is felt.  On an emotional/spiritual level it is often experienced as a tremendous feeling of love and joy or as a sensation of release as old emotional conflicts start to resolve and melt away.

The practice of Reiki is carried out as the client lays, fully clothed, on a massage bed.  The practitioner lays their hands on the client in a sequence of moves to ensure every area of the body receives this amazing healing energy.  It is believed that the Reiki energy will automatically be directed to any area of the body that needs attention.

Reiki will benefit every individual, whether they are known to be ill or are generally in good health.  It promotes relaxation and encourages the body’s innate healing system to take action, repairing body, mind and spirit.
