Reiki is a Japanese spiritual healing practice that involves channeling energy through the hands to promote balance, relaxation, and healing in the recipient’s body, mind, and spirit. The term Reiki (霊気) combines two Japanese words:

• Rei (霊) – meaning “universal” or “spiritual wisdom,”

• Ki (気) – meaning “life force energy” (similar to chi in Chinese or prana in Sanskrit).

The central idea is that there is a universal life force energy that flows through all living things. When this energy is low or blocked, a person is more likely to experience illness or emotional distress. Reiki aims to restore and enhance the natural flow of this energy.

Reiki works by channeling universal life force energy through the hands of a practitioner to the recipient, promoting healing, balance, and relaxation. This energy flows into the body and aura, helping to clear energetic blockages, balance the chakras, and support the body’s natural ability to heal on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. Reiki doesn’t force change; instead, it gently restores harmony where it’s needed most, often bringing a sense of peace, clarity, and deep relaxation.

Reiki is completely safe and non-invasive, making it suitable for people of all ages, including children, the elderly, and even pets. It works gently with the body’s natural energy to support healing without causing harm or interfering with medical treatments. Reiki may help by reducing stress and anxiety, easing physical discomfort, promoting emotional release, improving sleep, and enhancing overall well-being. It can also support spiritual growth and clarity by balancing the body’s energy system and clearing blockages. Many people find that regular 60 minute Reiki sessions help them feel centered, calm, and connected to themselves.

The number of Reiki sessions you may need depends on your individual goals, current state of well-being, and how deeply rooted your concerns are. Some people feel a noticeable difference after just one session, while others benefit from a series of treatments to support ongoing healing, stress relief, or spiritual growth. Regular sessions can help maintain energetic balance and prevent the buildup of tension or emotional blockages. Reiki can also be done from a distance, thanks to its ability to transcend time and space. Known as distance Reiki, this form of healing is just as effective and allows you to receive energy wherever you are, making it a powerful and accessible option for anyone, regardless of location.
