Reiki,
pronounced (ray-key), is the Japanese word for universal life force energy and is a healing therapy which utilizes the benefit obtained from this universal energy. Reiki was founded in the early 1900’s in Japan by Dr. Mikao Usui, who dedicated his life to the study of hands-on healing methods. To practice Reiki, no special kind of faith or belief is required. It is used with the same success by people of many faiths as well as by followers of widely-differing philosophies. Reiki requires no specific setting or preparation; it can be used in a private treatment session as well as in a hospital environment, including outpatient services, intensive care units and all other patient settings. |
