What is Reiki?

Mikao Usui - Founder of Reiki

1865 - 1926

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction, relaxation, and healing that promotes balance and well-being. It is administered through the gentle practice of "laying on hands" and is based on the belief that an unseen "life force energy" flows through all living beings, sustaining our vitality and overall health. If this energy is low, we may experience physical illness, stress, or emotional imbalance; when it is high, we feel more vibrant, centered, and capable of achieving optimal health and happiness.

The word Reiki comes from two Japanese words: Rei, which means "God's Wisdom" or "Higher Power," and Ki, which means "life force energy." Therefore, Reiki can be understood as "spiritually guided life force energy." This flow of energy is believed to be guided by a higher intelligence, enabling the healing energy to go exactly where it’s needed most.

A Reiki treatment feels like a soothing, radiant warmth that flows through and around you. Reiki works on the whole person—body, mind, emotions, and spirit—restoring balance and harmony. The benefits of Reiki include deep relaxation, peace, and a sense of security and well-being. Many people report experiencing miraculous results, such as reduced pain, enhanced mental clarity, and a renewed sense of emotional stability.

Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe healing method that anyone can use. It has been shown to help with virtually every known illness or ailment, alleviating symptoms and promoting healing. Reiki also supports self-improvement and spiritual growth. It works in harmony with other medical or therapeutic treatments to reduce side effects, enhance recovery, and improve overall healing outcomes.

Whether you’re seeking stress relief, emotional healing, or a deeper connection to yourself, Reiki can be a powerful tool to help you achieve balance and well-being.
