What is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced ‘ray-key’) is a Japanese form of holistic healing. The ‘Rei’ in Reiki, can be interpreted as meaning a higher form of intelligence and ‘Ki’ denotes life force energy. Coming into contact with Reiki energy raises the vibrational level and it flows to the area of highest need. Reiki is a natural and complete healing energy and can be used synergistically with all other healing methods. Reiki does not interfere with medical treatments and supports and enhances the healing process.

Is Reiki a religion?

Reiki is spiritual in nature but it is not a religion. There is no belief system involved and Reiki will work whether you have a belief system or not. Reiki is an alternative, natural healing method. The mystery and beauty of Reiki energy is that it’s directed by a higher consciousness. This healing consciousness flows into the body with the knowledge of how energy becomes blocked and where the Reiki energy needs to flow to release, nourish, and restore the body into balance. Reiki energy is transformational and can heal on many levels of body, mind and soul.

Where did Reiki originate?

Reiki was discovered by Dr. Mikao Usui, a sensitive Japanese spiritualist, in the early 20th century. On his quest for the knowledge of miraculous healing through touch, he studied the lives of spiritual leaders Buddha and Christ. With regularity, he meditated on Mt. Kurama’s power spots and during one of his meditations received the gift of healing others through touch without depleting his own energy. He traveled to Kyoto and used his healing abilities with the poor. Later he moved to Kyoto and created the Usui Reiki Healing Society. Mrs. Hawayo Takata, one of the thirteen Reiki Masters trained by Usui Sensei, is credited with bringing Reiki to the Western world.
