The Reiki system of healing uses universal life force energy. Reiki originated in Japan, although one of the two branches is called Western Reiki. Both forms include the same basic features, including those in the following list:
Safe: No one can do any harm with the Reiki energy.
Intelligent: The energy knows where to go and what to do to help you.
Natural: No other tools or instruments are needed besides the Reiki practitioner, who channels the Reiki energy through his hands.
Gentle: The practitioner places her hands softly on the body or just above the body. Practitioners don’t use massage or manipulation.
Simple to learn: You can learn Reiki in three classes: first degree, second degree, and third degree (Master level) classes.
Lifelong: After you are attuned to the Reiki energy by studying one of the three degrees of Reiki, you have the ability to channel Reiki for life.
Compatible with all religions or belief systems: You can receive or practice Reiki no matter what your religion. People of all faiths use Reiki as a system for relaxation and healing.
