Reiki is a healing approach that uses light touch from the practitioner to channel healing energy to the recipient. Used to relieve physical and emotional pain and to promote spiritual clarity, Reiki also speeds the healing process and balances the body's energy.

Reiki is a system of hands-on healing developed in the early 1900's by Mikao Usui in Japan. It is an art that is passed from Master to student. The word Reiki comes from two Japanese words - Rei and Ki, meaning universal life energy. The term "reiki" is used to describe both the energy and the Usui system of using it. There are many variant's of reiki being practiced these days.

Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive form of natural healing. The practitioner places his/her hands on the recipient’s clothed body, moving the hands every few minutes. It is a form of energy work that works on the physical, mental and spiritual levels by restoring and balancing the natural energy within the body. Reiki can be used as a form of health maintenance and disease prevention, and can be applied as a self-help technique.
