Reiki

Reiki 霊気, which means “universal life force energy,” is a gentle healing technique used to balance the chakras and harmonize body, mind, and spirit.

Based on the belief that a universal life force energy flows through all living things, reiki (pronounced ray-key) is an abundant spiritual energy that can be channeled to renew the body’s energy fields for deep relaxation, overall sense of wellbeing and to promote healing. It’s even used worldwide in hospitals, including the Cleveland Clinic.

In 2005, I started learning reiki in the Usui tradition, named after the Christian monk Dr. Usui who rediscovered reiki in early 1900s Japan. Now as an advanced reiki practitioner, I integrate this radiant energy into all my sessions – both in-person and with distance healing. Reiki can be given to pets, plants, even food!

What is a reiki session like?

During a reiki session, you remain fully dressed and lay comfortably on a table (or sit on a pillow if in a group setting). I use my hands to channel this divine energy into the body, lightly touching on specific points so that it flows to where healing is needed. I like to play soft, meditative music and diffuse essential oils, too. Sessions usually last 60 minutes.

What does reiki feel like?

Often times you can feel a light and relaxing vibrational energy coursing through your body. Some describe it as a warming, pulsing or tingling sensation or even a glowing radiance. Reiki has the natural ability to weave effortlessly through you – treating the whole person in body, emotions, mind and spirit. It induces feelings of deep relaxation, peace, security and wellbeing.
