Reiki ("ray key") is an ancient Japanese method of stress reduction and relaxation. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". Combined, Reiki is the "spiritually guided life force energy." 

Reiki energy healing involves direct application of Chi (or ki) for the purpose of strengthening a person's energy system or aura. The practitioner places hands on or near the person receiving treatment, with the intent to transmit Chi/ki, which is believed to be a life-force energy. Unlike other healing therapies based on the premise of a human energy field, Reiki seeks to restore order to the body whose vital energy has become unbalanced.

A Reiki session is relaxing, nurturing and non-invasive. It is effective in relieving stress and promoting preventive measures of healing. Reiki energy effectively administered promotes well being on the physical, emotional, and spiritual levels, releasing blocks and creating balance.
