What is Reiki?

reiki healingReiki is a type of BioEnergy therapy that helps promote wellness and relaxation while gently balancing the body and mind. This simple, non-invasive, and versatile method triggers the body’s natural healing abilities and improves and maintains the health and well-being of the mind and body. It is understood that during times of stress and illness, energy that flows through the body can become depleted, blocked, and unbalanced. Reiki can help release blockages and rebalance that energy.

The medical profession has recently been examining new methods of wellness and healing, with increased interest in complementary methods. A recent study estimates that over one million adults in the United States have received one or more energy healing sessions such as Reiki and that number is growing exponentially. A USA Today article reported that in 2007, over 800 U.S. hospitals offered Reiki as a regular part of patient services and more hospitals are beginning to include Reiki as patient demand for complementary care increases.
