What is Reiki?



Reiki, pronounced RAY-KEY, is a form of Energy work that was re-discovered on Mt. Karuna in Japan in the early part of the 20th Century by a healer named Mikao Usui. Mikao Usui then began using the powerful, healing, Universal Energy to help others in his community heal from ailments and other dis-ease.
​
He shared his newfound knowledge with a medical doctor in his community named Chujiro Hayashi, and as Dr. Hayashi studied Reiki techniques, positions and symbols under Mikao Usui, he was astonished to see the incredible benefits
of this healing Energy.
​
Dr. Hayashi was able to help a Japanese American, Mrs. Hawaya Takata, who fell sick whilst visiting Japan. Mrs. Takata recovered completely and profoundly. Mrs. Takata was so impressed with the results of healing sessions, that she persuaded Dr. Hayashi to teach her how to administer it. She brought her newfound knowledge back to the United States in the 1950's, and the rest is history.
​
Reiki is said to heal situations, people, animals and even things like vehicle issues, mind pollution, stress, and more. It has been observed in controlled environments, such as such as in scientific studies, hospitals and other settings to promote the body's healing mechanisms following childbirth, surgery, chemotherapy and many other situations. ​
​
The word "Reiki" translates from Japanese meaning "Universal Life Energy" or Universal Life force. If you've never experienced Reiki's non-invasive healing energy, perhaps it's time to schedule a session!
