Reiki means “Universal Life Force Energy” or “Spiritual / Higher Power Life Force Energy”

Reiki is a system of natural healing, whereby universal energy flows through the hands of the practitioner to the recipient for the purpose of relaxation, health and well-being. Reiki started in Japan in the 1920s with Dr. Makao Usui and was carried forward by Dr. Hayashi and later by Mrs. Takata in Hawaii.

While Reiki is not associated with any particular religion, many cultures and religions utilize similar hands on healing practices.  ​

As a Reiki practitioner, I ask universal life force energy to flow through my hands for the highest good of all and harm of none. I feel and follow Reiki energy, as I directly touch the recipient’s body or keep my hands at a distance. Reiki does what it does and I do not interpret. I let the recipient receive and perceive the effects. 

After a Reiki session, I may offer the recipient suggestions for self-treatment and other practices intended to help nurture and maintain health and good energy at home in day to day life.
