Reiki is a form of energy healing that originated in Japan. It involves the practitioner channeling universal life energy (referred to as “ki” or “chi”) to promote healing and balance in the recipient. The practice is based on the belief that this energy can help to alleviate stress, enhance relaxation, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
In a typical Reiki session, the recipient usually lies down fully clothed while the practitioner lightly places their hands on or near the body. The intention is to facilitate the flow of energy, helping to clear any blockages and restore harmony. Sessions can vary in length and may include guided meditation or breathwork.
Reiki is often used for stress reduction, pain relief, and emotional healing. Many people find it a calming and restorative experience, and it can be complementary to other forms of medical treatment.
