Reiki
What It is
Reiki is a form of alternative therapy that originated in Japan in the early 20th century. The word "Reiki" is derived from two Japanese words: "rei," which means "universal," and "ki," which means "life energy" or "vital force." Reiki is often translated as "universal life energy".
What To Expect
During a Reiki session, you can typically expect to lie down fully clothed in a peaceful and quiet environment while a trained Reiki practitioner uses their hands to lightly touch or hover over various parts of your body, with the goal of inducing deep relaxation and a sense of well-being through the channeling of universal life energy.
Why It Helps
Reiki is believed to help by promoting the flow of universal life energy within the body, which can potentially remove energy blockages and restore balance, leading to physical, emotional, and spiritual support. While its efficacy is a subject of debate, many people find Reiki beneficial for relaxation, stress reduction, and a sense of overall well-being.
