About Reiki

---

Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that uses universal (or source) energy. This energy supports the body's innate healing abilities. Practitioners access this energy, allowing it to flow to the body and facilitate healing. Reiki is a gentle, noninvasive holistic energy healing system that yields powerful results for the body, mind and spirit.

Reiki energy has several basic effects: it brings about deep relaxation, removes energy blockages, detoxifies the system, provides new vitality in the form of healing universal life energy, and increases the vibrational frequency of the body. Reiki puts the client into a very relaxed and meditative state. This allows the bodies' energy to move freely.  Reiki provides many of the same benefits as traditional massage therapy, such as reducing stress, stimulating the immune system, increasing energy, and relieving the pain and symptoms of health conditions.

includes Usui/Tibetan Reiki Training as well as techniques developed by Huntington Beach Reiki and the ICRT. Huntington Beach Reiki is where I was trained and highly recommend to anyone who is looking to become a reiki master. 

include Japanese techniques that can be used daily to ensure a clearer and stronger Reiki channel. These techniques have been missing from Western Reiki for more than 50 years.  Usui placed much greater focus on healing the SELF, than is generally done in Western Reiki. I was taught self-healing meditations based on that used by Usui with his students. All course material studied and used were from the manuals and teachings developed by The International House of Reiki and Mikao Usui.

People use Reiki for relaxation, stress reduction, and symptom relief, in efforts to improve overall health and well-being. Reiki has been used by people with cancer, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, fatigue, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, and other health conditions, as well as by people recovering from surgery or experiencing side effects from medical treatments. Reiki has also been given to people who are dying (and to their families and caregivers) to help impart a sense of peace. Reiki also helps with weight loss, bad habits, addictions, fertility and pregnancy issues.
