Reiki

"Rei" is Japanese for "spiritual, omnipresent" and "ki" means "life force, energy". It was in the early 1900's that a Japanese man called Mikao Usui developed the "Usui Reiki Method", one of the most powerful yet gentle ways of healing with energy. Reiki promotes good health and well-being, boosts your immune system and rejuvenates your body in the most natural way.

During a Reiki treatment you remain dressed and lie comfortably with cushions while your practitioner transmits the energy to you. Even though a Reiki treatment is associated with the laying on of hands, actual touch is not necessary. The Reiki energy can be transmitted while the practitioner holds his hands within 1-5 inches above your body in your body's energy field (your aura).

Some of the benefits of Reiki are;

• Stress relief and a deep relaxation.
• A strengthening of the natural self-healing powers and
• the body's immune system.
• Increase in personal energy and vitality, rejuvenation
• A healthy mind-body connection.
• Detoxification and deep cleansing.
• Release of emotional and energetic blockages.
