For those of you that are new to reiki and energy work in general, here are a few facts and some info on reiki and how it works. ⁣⁣Reiki was developed by Mikao Usui in Japan in the 1920s.

It is a relaxing form of healing therapy that is applied through noninvasive, nonmanipulative gentle touch. ⁣⁣Reiki is an energy healing treatment that works holistically on the whole body, mind and spirit. It does not stem from any religious belief, and anyone can partake in reiki. ⁣⁣

Reiki is a relaxing treatment where natural healing vibrations are transmitted through the hands of a Reiki practitioner to the body of the recipient.

Reiki can be difficult for some to understand, especially those who are scientific based in their approach to health- however reiki and energy work can be understood by taking a look at the scientific theories behind energy fields and the energetic body. ⁣⁣Our body is made up of energy that is vibrating around the clock! It is an illusion that the human body is considered solid. ⁣⁣Most of us were not taught how to tune in to the energetic layers that contribute to our body and therefore end up focusing on the physical aspects of our body. ⁣⁣Our field of energy is made of up of energy points, meridians and layers of energy that make up our auric field. ⁣⁣In future series I look forward to delving deeper into energy fields and the energetic body and the science behind it. I’m passionate about demystifying energy work with you so that you can benefit from what it has to offer, it has truly been life changing for me! ⁣

Did you know that reiki is widely used in hospitals and cancer clinics? ⁣⁣Studies have found that Reiki is effective in reducing pain, depression, and anxiety in chronically ill patients. ⁣⁣Reiki was also found to enhance the self-esteem of patients and gave them a sense of control over their mental health. ⁣⁣Reiki is deeply relaxing and has the potential to provide valuable support for a broad range of chronic health conditions. ⁣
