What is Reiki ?
Reiki is a simple yet profound Japanese technique used for stress reduction and relaxation
to promote well-
A Reiki treatment involves using specific hand positions on the body, with the recipient sitting or lying fully clothed. During the treatment, the Reiki energy flows naturally and may be experienced as heat, cold, tingling, colours, compassion, love, or peacefulness. Practitioners often describe a powerful flow of Reiki energy through their hands into the recipient who draws Reiki to the parts of the body that need it most. The practitioner should not feel drained of energy, as it is not their energy they are using.
Anyone can learn Reiki, although knowledge of Reiki is passed traditionally from master to student and is acquired in several stages. Each stage or workshop is complete in itself, and uses both oral tradition and student initiations or attunements, based on the original teachings of Mikao Usui.
Reiki is a system of self healing and personal and spiritual development. It is a transformational tool to awaken our inner knowledge . Reiki has been shown to effectively activate the relaxation response, thereby reducing stress and stimulating the body’s own natural healing ability and well being.
Reiki is not a spiritual belief system and does not contradict any individual religious beliefs. It is now widely accepted and practised in many NHS and private healthcare settings. It can be used safely alongside any other complementary or conventional medical treatment.
