Transformational Energy Therapies

Usui Shiki Royoho Reiki

Reiki is an energetic healing practice that uses hands-on touch and focused visualization. It aims to balance and amplify energy on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual plane. Reiki is a Japanese word meaning “universal life energy”.  It is based on ancient Tibetan Buddhist teachings rediscoved in the mid-1800’s by Dr. Mikao Usui, a professor of theology at a Christian seminary in Kyoto, Japan.

This life force energy can be defined as energy in all created matter. "Ki" is similar in thought to "chi" or "qi" in Chinese medicine, Hindu "prana" and Christian "light." Reiki is hands-on energy healing where the practitioner serves as an open channel for transmitting the "ki" to others. The energy is channeled through the hands to the client, which activates the body's own natural ability to heal itself. Reiki goes to wherever it is needed most, releasing blocked energies, cleansing the body of toxins, working to create a state of balance and harmony, and promoting relaxation and healing.
