Reiki is a method of self healing that originated in Mikao Usui in Japan in the 20th Century. Reiki means ‘universal energy' in Japanese. A Reiki practitioner uses this energy to encourage the body to self heal. Reiki is used in a wide range of physical and mental conditions including the relief of stress and tension.
During a treatment the Reiki practitioner will ask you to sit or lie down; it is not necessary to undress. The practitioner will place their hand on or above your body. You may experience warmth or tingling sensations as the energy flows.
