The word “Reiki” means “mysterious atmosphere, miraculous sign.” It comes from the Japanese words “rei,” meaning universal, and “ki,” meaning life energy.
Reiki is a type of energy healing. According to practitioners, energy can stagnate in the body where there has been physical injury or even emotional pain. In time, these energy blocks can cause illness.
Energy medicine aims to help the flow of energy and remove blocks in a similar way to acupuncture or acupressure. Reiki practitioners believe that improving the flow of energy around the body can enable relaxation, relieve pain, speed healing, and reduce other symptoms of illness.
Mikao Usui created Usui Reiki Ryoho, the most current form of Reiki, in 1922. However, people have practiced Reiki for about 2,500 years.
People also refer to Reiki as hands-on healing.
Practitioners will typically give Reiki treatment in a peaceful, private setting. However, the treatment can take place anywhere. During a session, the client will sit in a comfortable chair or lie on a table, fully clothed.
The practitioner will then place their hands lightly on or over specific areas of the client’s head, limbs, and torso. They will typically keep their hands in these positions for several minutes.
If there is a particular injury, such as a burn, the practitioner will hold their hands just above the wound.
Advocates state that while the practitioner holds their hands lightly on or over the body, an energy transfer takes place. During this time, the practitioner may report that their hands feel warm or are tingling. They will hold each hand position until they sense that the energy has stopped flowing.
When the practitioner feels that the heat, or energy, in their hands has gone, they will remove their hands and place them over a different body area.
The techniques that Reiki involves have names such as:
“Reiki relies on no other instruments beyond the practitioner. We do not use crystals, powders, or wands as a general rule.
You can always experience a shorter session when scheduling a massage. I love to share this practice with my clients.
Our Thai massage services are a unique blend of acupressure, stretching, and rhythmic compression techniques. The therapist uses their hands, feet, elbows, and knees to apply pressure to specific points on the body, promoting relaxation and healing.
The fundamental belief is that for a body to heal, it must relax. That is what Reiki is. A way to help your body relax.
Reiki is $45 for 30 minutes and I am happy to add into your massage if requested.
