Reiki (pronounced ‘ray-kee’) comes from the Japanese words, ‘rei’ (meaning ‘universal’) and ‘ki’ (meaning ‘energy’). Reiki is a natural healing energy activated by intention. It works on every level, not just the physical. The practice of Reiki is an ancient Japanese relaxation technique which is non-invasive, gentle, yet powerful and completely harmless. It was developed by Mikao Usui in Japan in the early 20th century. Reiki may be used alongside orthodox healthcare but is not an alternative to conventional medicine.
