Reiki

This is a Japanese word meaning Universal Life Energy, 

an energy which is all around us, (pronounced Ray-key)

Reiki is the name given to a system of natural healing which evolved in Japan 

from the experience and dedication of Dr Mikao Usui (d. 1926). 

Fired by a burning question, Dr Usui was inspired to develop this healing system 

from ancient teachings after many years of study, research and meditation. 

He spent the rest of his life practising and teaching Reiki. 

Today Reiki continues to be taught by Reiki Masters 

who have trained in the tradition passed down from Master to student.

There is no belief system attached to Reiki so anyone can receive 

or learn to give a Reiki treatment, the only prerequisite is the desire to be healed.

It is a treatment using the timeless tradition 

a laying on of the hands using the channeling of universal energy. 

A healing life force to restore the balance of body and mind.
