Using the Dr Mikao Usui technique - The Japanese word Reiki is combined with 'Rei' = Universal and 'Ki' = Life-force energy. It is said to be universal because all common things are made up of the same particles/energy. This commonality means we can heal and be healed by the highest level of consciousness even to the densest levels of matter.

Through this universal flow of light, the Reiki practitioner helps to facilitate one's own healing process by acting as a facilitator to and from this abundant source acting like a massage for the physical and spiritual layers of the human being.

Reiki can assist with the following:

Illness and disease (mental and physical)
Disorders
Emotional fatigue and stress
PTSD
Trauma
Sleep disturbances
