Reiki is a Japanese healing art that uses the practitioner's hands to channel universal life energy into the recipient. This energy, known as Qi or Prana, is believed to promote healing and well-being on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. Reiki is a gentle and non-invasive therapy that can be used as a complementary treatment alongside conventional medicine or as a standalone healing modality.

The Reiki Session

A typical Reiki session lasts between 60 and 90 minutes. The recipient lies down fully clothed on a massage table or sits in a comfortable chair. The practitioner places their hands gently on or above the recipient's body, using specific hand positions to channel Reiki energy.

During the session, the recipient may experience a range of sensations, including warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation. Reiki flows naturally to where it is most needed, promoting healing and balance.

Becoming a Reiki Practitioner

To become a Reiki practitioner, one must undergo attunement, a process that channels Reiki energy into the student and activates their ability to heal. There are three levels of Reiki attunement:

Level 1: Basic Reiki training
Level 2: Advanced Reiki techniques
Level 3: Master Reiki practitioner

After completing the attunement process, practitioners can begin practicing Reiki on themselves, others, and animals.

This gentle and non-invasive therapy has the power to heal on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. By adhering to the principles of Reiki and embracing the healing energy that flows through them, practitioners can facilitate profound healing and well-being.
