Q:
What is Reiki?
A: The word 'Reiki' means Universal Life Force Energy.
People with many different backgrounds practice it for
personal healing and as a spiritual discipline however
it is not a religion or faith system. The purpose is to
heal not only physical problems, but also emotions, mind
and spirit to help you lead a well balanced, healthy and
happy life. |

Q: What does Reiki treatment
feel like?
A: The experience of Reiki can be very profound. Many
people report sensations of warmth or tingling and many
experience a deep sense of peace, relaxation and well-being.
The energy works to balance your energy system at all
levels and to relieve the subtle causes of many states
of ill health or emotional discomfort. Temporary and
longer-term relief from a variety of types of pain is
common. Some healings are immediate while others occur
gradually, however it is very rare that there is no
benefit.

Q: What does a Reiki
treatment consist of?
A: During a Reiki treatment, you either sit or lie down
fully clothed while the practitioner places his or her
hands gently onto a series of positions that is designed
to reconnect us to universal energy. A treatment usually
takes a good hour but shorter sessions are also beneficial.
If you are not comfortable being touched, Reiki is equally
effective when channeled from above the body.

Q: How
does it work?
A: A Reiki session usually creates feelings of deep relaxation
and inner peace, providing the body with an ideal environment
to maximize its natural healing processes and allow the
relief of all kinds of symptoms, from backache to the
blues. Although many have tried rational explanations,
there remains a mystery that cannot be explained by words,
but must be understood through experience. |
