Service Description

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning “Universal Life Energy.” It is an ancient healing art which channels energy through the palms of the hands. This vital spiritual energy activates the natural healing processes and detoxifies the body of both physical and emotional blockages, thus fostering a state of deep relaxation and calm. In practice, Reiki is the laying on of hands to heal. This practice may entail physical touch at times, but frequently direct touch isn’t needed, and the hands are kept several inches away from the physical body. For those who experience it, Reiki is often described as a “warm,” or “relaxing” energy which can be transformative in nature. Practitioners receive a sacred initiation, known as a “Reiju” (attunement) which opens them up to act as a conduit for this universal life force energy. Once attuned, the practitioner can tap into this healing energy without depleting their own. Reiki healing is beneficial in the following ways: -Balancing mental health (anxiety, depression) -Stress Reduction -Moving through grief & loss (life transitions, loss of loved ones) -Preparing for surgery (pre & post) -Serving as a self-care practice in managing chronic health conditions Reiki benefits everyone, both receivers and givers of it. According to the International Association of Reiki Practitioners, “Reiki is not a cure for a disease or illness.” That said, “it may assist the body in creating an environment to facilitate healing.” Reiki can be used as “a complement to traditional medicine,” as it “is practiced in many hospitals and medical care settings.”
