Reiki is a Japanese word meaning "universal life force energy."  It is a natural method of energy balancing that works to bring harmony & balance to one's life by treating the entire person at the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.

In a healthy body, energy flow is smooth and balanced. Stressors such as unhealthy states (anger, fear), toxins and other negative forces create energy blockages that can and often do lead to dis-ease and illness in the body. Reiki works to remove these blockages to bring back a healthy energy flow.

This occurs when the Reiki practioner places their hands lightly on or directly above above one of the body's seven main energy centers (chakras).
