Reiki Energy Healing
Reiki is a Japanese stress reduction and relaxation technique that promotes healing. It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s “life force energy” is low, one is more likely to get sick or feel stressed; if it is high, one is more capable of being happy and healthy.
According to the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, people use Reiki for relaxation, stress reduction, and symptom relief to improve overall health and well-being. A Reiki treatment may do the following:
• bring about a peaceful, deep state of relaxation
• dissolve energy blockages and tension
• detoxify the body
• support the well-being of a person receiving traditional medical treatments that are debilitating (e.g., chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, kidney dialysis)
• supply universal life force energy to the body
• stimulate the body’s immune system
• help to relieve pain
• stimulate tissue and bone healing after injury or surgery
• increase the vibrational frequency on physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels

If you are already in good health, regularly applying Reiki treatments (about once a month) can enhance your ability to respond to unhealthy environmental elements and help you handle stress. Reiki is an excellent form of preventive medicine that promotes the harmonious distribution of energy.
