(Pronounced ray’-key) Reiki is a spiritual healing art form. In Japanese Reiki translates to Universal Life Force Energy. It helps to harmonize body, mind & spirit. “Ki” also known as “chi” from China has been called Source Energy or God Energy.
There are 7 major energy centers in the human body called “Chakras”. The word “Chakra” is derived from the Sanskrit word meaning “wheel”. When the charkas are working properly they continuously revolve or rotate. Many people become ill because their charkas are out of alignment or are “Imbalanced”, or there are blockages. This can restrict the flow of energy in the body, which can lead to mental, spiritual or physical disorders.
Reiki can help restore balance in the body and can relieve or even remove symptoms. Reiki has successfully been used on conditions such as reducing stress, relieving pain, headaches, stomach upsets, back problems, asthma - respiratory problems, PMT, menstrual problems, sinus, anxiety and many many more. Reiki can be used on any illness, but this does not mean everyone will be healed using Reiki. It is important to get the full benefit of Reiki, the person receiving Reiki be willing to be healed coupled with a willingness to see that healing and/or change of conditions be presented in the manner that Reiki deems best -- almost being without a desired outcome -- that makes for the best (or most useful) healing experience.
(Please observe that Reiki should never be used instead of medical treatment, it should be used as a compliment and a way to become and remain healthy.)
