About Reiki Healing
Reiki healing is a holistic and non-invasive energy healing technique that aims to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. It involves a trained practitioner using their hands to channel energy into the recipient's body, with the intention of activating the natural healing processes of the body and balancing the flow of energy. What makes Reiki unique is that it is based on the idea that energy is not limited to the physical body, but also extends to the emotional and spiritual aspects of a person. Reiki sessions are often relaxing and calming
Brief History
Reiki is a Japanese form of energy healing, a type of alternative medicine. Reiki practitioners use a technique called palm healing or hands-on healing through which a "universal energy" is said to be transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the patient in order to encourage emotional or physical healing.
Why Reiki Healing?
A man by the name of Mikao Usui created the Usui System of Reiki in Japan at the beginning of the 20th century, which is when the practice of reiki healing first appeared. Usui is credited with creating the technique after having a spiritual awakening and devoting himself to researching traditional medical procedures. He created a method of healing that required placing hands on or close to the body of the patient to direct energy into their body.
​
Usui's pupils helped to advance and publicize reiki, and as a result, it finally gained popularity outside of Japan. Hawayo Takata, a Japanese-American, introduced Reiki to the country in the middle of the 20th century, where it gained popularity and was more widely taught and practiced.
