The Reiki World 

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese Word meaning Universal Life Energy. It is a non-intrusive method of hand healing, which allows the Life Energy flow through the body, deeply affecting our bodies, minds and emotions.

This method of healing was discovered by Japanese monk Mikao Usui, who taught and practiced Reiki in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Research into the source of Usui work points to ancient Buddhist sutras. 

Current research strongly suggests that energy does extend throughout and beyond the physical body and that disruptions or imbalances in its flow correlate to physical, mental and emotional illnesses. The healing art of Reiki addresses these imbalances to support your good health and well being.

Reiki is not massage, hypnosis or a tool for diagnosing illness. Reiki is a technique that addresses both chronic and acute conditions, gently and powerfully promoting balance among all the body systems and the normal regenerative processes of the body and mind.    

Reiki in Health Care

Used by a rapidly growing number of hospitals all over the World, Reiki compliments medical treatment, natural therapies and massage therapy. Reiki increases a caregiver ability to provide patient support and is easily practiced in all hospital environments from outpatient clinic to intensive care.

Reiki is being successfully integrated into numerous clinical settings to compliment medical care and psychological counseling. It is gentle enough to offer support and reduce the discomfort of pregnant women and can help ease the pain of children.

Many hospitals have teams of Reiki practitioners available to a range of patients including those with cancer or recovering from surgery.
