What is Reiki

Reiki is a very simple and easy to learn Laying-On of Hands healing technique that dates back thousands of years. According to the original teachings, all humans have the ability of using Reiki. The only requirement needed is to be Attuned to Reiki by a qualified Reiki Master/Teacher to open an individual to channel the Healing Energy.

The word Reiki comes from two Japanese words - Rei and Ki, meaning universal. The Traditional Reiki used today was discovered in the 1800's by Mikao Usui when he searched for a method of healing people of their pain and ailments.

Reiki is divided into three degrees. In Reiki I, the attunement heals physical level illnesses in the individual receiving it. Reiki I practitioners are able to heal themselves and others who are physically present. Reiki II Attunement enhances and increases the amount of healing energy, and this level focuses on emotional, mental and karmic healing in the person receiving it. It adds considerable power to direct sessions. Reiki II also gives the practitioner the methods and tools for doing distant healing. Reiki III is the Master/Teacher's degree. A Master is a teacher, trained to teach and Attune others to Reiki. Healing as a Reiki III practitioner is again enhanced by virtue of having practiced as a Reiki Healer.
