What is Reiki? Reiki is a healing technique that is based on the idea that all of our bodies hold energy, and by channeling that energy we can activate a person's natural ability to heal. This form of healing bodywork originated in Japan in the 1920s - though references to it exist in literature even earlier than that - before making its way to the West. Also referred to as "the laying on of hands," Reiki uses the transmission of energy to or within a person's body to help him or her relax and heal. It is said to improve a variety of ailments, including pain, addiction, illness, depression, and stress. It also has been used in research, clinical, and hospital settings, with its practice catching on more and more in otherwise Western medical settings including some very well-known hospitals.

Reiki is performed by the practitioner placing his or her hands in a series of positions on or in the space over the subject's body. This sequence of hand positions is thought to clear blockages in the body's energy pathways, and to channel healing energy into the places where it is needed. Those receiving Reiki treatment typically report feeling warmth and tingling, as well as deep relaxation, during a session. They may be driven to seek out Reiki for general well-being, emotional issues such as depression, and illness or injury. Most report improvement in those conditions, as well as general relaxation and stress reduction, from the very first visit. Certain more chronic or severe conditions may require a series of treatments before substantial improvement is observed.

Those who take training in how to practice Reiki receive what is called "attunement" along with their education. They progress from Reiki Level 1 to Reiki Level 2 and on to Reiki Level 3, also called Reiki Master. These practitioners might treat their clients in an office setting similar to a massage therapist's suite, in a hospital or clinic, or even remotely - a practice known as "distance Reiki." Generally, treatments follow the same sequence of hand positions on or over the body, but some practitioners might hold certain hand positions in place for shorter or longer periods than others, depending on the conditions for which the client is being treated. Some practitioners incorporate rituals or other habits into their treatment, including the use of crystals, colored lighting, aromatherapy, and prayer or meditation.

The beauty of receiving Reiki is that it is safe and non-invasive, and anyone can be treated with it. Likewise, anyone with an interest can learn to practice this ancient healing art. It has no known side effects and can be used alone or in tandem with other healing modalities.
