Reiki is a gentle form of hands-on healing from Japan that replenishes the body’s deep energy reserve and facilitates healing on all levels—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. It can be used for self-healing or treating others. Often, people who receive Reiki report feeling deeply relaxed, grounded or uplifted. Some express a deeper connection with their spirtuality or inner source of meaning. However, there is no religious belief system attached to Reiki.

People use Reiki to relax and strengthen their well-being; reduce pain, anxiety and fatigue; help manage symptoms; reduce side effects of medications; and support recovery after injury or surgeries.
