Touch of Reiki

Reiki (pronounced ray key) is a Japanese method of healing. Reiki means "universal life force energy". It is the practice of transferring the healing life force energy, that exists within and around us, through the practitioner to the recipient. This touch therapy, performed by a certified practitioner, is gentle and non-invasive.

 

Reiki energy works with the human body’s innate ability to heal itself and restore balance. Reiki is a natural and safe intervention that promotes healing on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. It is recognized among health practitioners as a safe and effective complementary therapy to all other forms of health care. It enhances, but does not conflict with, any medical procedures one may be undergoing and it has no negative side effects.
