Usui Reiki was developed in Japan by Mikao Usui in the early 20th century and is based on the belief that universal life force energy flows through all living things.
Reiki is intended to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and support overall well-being by balancing and clearing energy pathways. Practitioners place their hands on or near a client's body to channel this energy, which is said to help release trapped emotional and physical blockages. This holistic practice addresses body, mind and spirit as a whole.
Reiki works by rebalancing the body’s energy flow, supporting the body’s natural ability to heal itself on all levels. This holistic approach can lead to a wide range of benefits, including stress reduction, pain relief, emotional healing, and improved overall health and well-being.
Reiki is not tied to any particular religion or belief system and can be used for people of all ages and health conditions. Reiki has been increasing in popularity around the world as a complimentary service for health and wellness in the medical and non-medical fields.
The word “Reiki” combines two Japanese words: “Rei,” meaning “universal,” and “Ki,” meaning “life energy.”
