Reiki and Energy Healing:
Balancing the flow of energy to support relaxation, wellness, and good health

The word Reiki is comprised of two Kanji characters, Rei & Ki.

Translated into English, Reiki means Universal Life Force Energy. Universal Life force permeates every object within the universe. "...each and every thing that exists in the universe possesses universal life force... the essence of all that is..."  Mikao Usui, founder of Reiki.

Universal life force within the Human body is called "life energy". It is this energy within our bodies that gives us the ability to live our lives with strength, purpose, and the natural ability to heal.

You may recognize "life energy" as called, prana, chi, vitality, aura, magnetism. Each name represents the same energy and in our case we call it Reiki as to define both life energy within the human body and Universal energy permeating all things.

Back in the 1900's, a Japanese Monk & Educator named Mikao Usui (1865-1926) developed a system in which to use Reiki, to make Reiki a practical tool in which to harness this energy and focus its power.

Usui Sensei called this system Usui Reiki Ryoho and it spread very quickly throughout Japan as an effective "Hands on Healing" technique.

Thus, today the term Reiki refers to both the Universal Life Force Energy and the Usui system to make active use of that energy.

Usui Reiki is a Japanese practice based on the premise that one's health is directly related to the balance of one's energy. Through the use of this natural healing system, Reiki energy flows freely and powerfully facilitating healing abilities thus combating disease. Use it wisely and you will recognize your truths. You will heal and promote the healing of others.

A tool and practice accessible to all, this old Eastern tradition is a safe and gentle hands-on system delivering the Universal Life Force to the body. Reiki does not employ massage. Rather, the Reiki Practitioner transfers energy through the safe laying of the hands. The chakras are balanced and opened, stimulating growth while completely relaxing one's body and mind.

Energetic vibrations increase and blockages clear. Awareness and intuition heighten.

A natural healing system and spiritual system, Reiki is very simple to practice. With clear intent and strong pathways, the practitioner becomes the vessel through which Reiki is focused and distributed.

Described as feeling warm, soothing and "tingly", a recipient of Reiki will feel measurable heat emanating from the practitioner's hands. This is normal and most often invited.

Reiki is not a medical treatment. Reiki supports the paradigm emerging in Western medicine. That paradigm includes preventive care, mind/body awareness and natural healing.

Reiki is the least complicated, truest and most effective technique for wellness, as it is an excellent compliment to Western medicine. It is holistic in nature and will not adversely interfere with any drug, diagnosis, or belief system. It is untainted, intelligent, and it cannot be manipulated. Moreover, Reiki gives all the powers to heal to the recipient. Most importantly, the practitioner holds no power over the patient.

The first step in learning Reiki, in recognizing the energy in your own life, is to receive an attunement. An attunement is a formal event wherein a Reiki Master increases the frequency of the recipient's energy. Reiki attunements open a pathway within the recipient allowing for a flow of Reiki energy. Likened to the tuning of a radio, the receiver becomes in tune with energy on a higher dimension.

The Reiki Master will raise your awareness, energetic vibrations, and connect you to the Universal Life Force. Your life will change instantly. To receive an attunement is best described as, "...making a statement to our subconscious minds that we are ready to take control of our lives, our health, our spiritual well-being and we are going to do it with our own two hands." (Alli Dahlhaus, Reiki Master)

Receiving an attunement is easy. After study and training, you simply lie down on your back or sit in a chair depending. You close your eyes and relax. You will feel like you just received a massage, even though you didn't.

After receiving an attunement the recipient is able to use Reiki immediately. The exploration begins and never ends.

You deserve to release pain, stress, tension, and anxiety. It's time to call and schedule your appointment and discover what Reiki can do for you.
