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 he 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 while visiting Japan and recovered completely and profoundly. Mrs. Takata was so impressed with the results of the healing energy, that she traveled back to Japan to learn how to administer it. She brought that knowledge back to the United States in the 1950's and the rest is history.
​
Reiki is said to heal situations, people and even things like vehicle issues, mind pollution, stress, etc. It has been observed in controlled environments such as scientific studies, hospitals and other settings to promote our bodies healing mechanisms following childbirth, surgery and other situations.
​
Many Reiki Practitioners believe that Jesus used this powerful energy to heal the sick during His time on Earth. Not all Reiki people believe this, but it has been discussed in Christian circles throughout the decades since Reiki was rediscovered in Japan during the turn of the 20th Century.

The word "Reiki" translates from Japanese meaning "Universal Life Energy" or Universal Life force. If you've never experienced its non-invasive healing, it's time to make an appointment!
