How does one begin to describe a healing modality that can assist in creating the best possible outcome in any situation?
While most often referred to when discussing physical healing, Reiki can also be very effective in easing our emotions, balancing our energy and in doing so calming our mental processes. This in itself aids the body in relaxing and general wellness.
Reiki is Universal Life Force Energy – the natural movement of what some call ‘Chi’, ‘Prana’, ‘Orgone’ and ‘Ki’ – the energy that gives and sustains life.
With the stressors and challenges in our lives, the gentle energy of Reiki is often especially effective in balancing and empowering the body for greater expression of health and well-being
Reiki works to unblock, energize and balance your body’s system of energy centers called chakras. Since everything is energy – and each chakra is associated with important parts of your body- Reiki is the perfect energetic healing modality to ‘tune up’ your chakras and assist your body in wellness.
The Reiki practitioner is not a’ healer’ though some may use this term. The practice of Reiki and the sharing of a Reiki session open the practitioner to acting as a conduit through which Reiki energy flows to the client ‘through the practitioner’ not ‘from the practitioner’.
Reiki practioners – 1, 2 or Master Level
Regardless of the level of attunements a practitioner or teacher has had we have no legal medical authority to prescribe medications or diagnose disease. Reiki is a totally natural healing modality which works by giving the body more gentle, relaxing and ‘whole’ life force energy to work with.
Reiki is gaining in acceptance as Reiki Practitioners are allowed to assist in hospital, rehabilitation centers, nursing homes and other places where the benefits are a blessing to those receiving it. Many nurses, caregivers, massage therapists and alternative medical professionals are discovering the results possible when Reiki is added to their ‘holistic’ toolkit.
I have personally seen many conditions change in ways many would call ‘miracles’.
Reiki is not ‘Religious’
There are those who associate Reiki with ‘laying on of hands’. While it can be an agreed upon choice between practitioner and recipient to actually place hands on the body – it is not necessary. The practitioner does not need to touch you and may simply hold their hands within a few inches of your body and allow Reiki to flow. There is also no need to remove any clothing – Reiki energy easily moves through your clothes.
There is no specific Religion associated with Reiki. Many Spiritual Belief Systems do embrace the energetic concepts of Reiki while the name may be different. It is not necessary to hold any specific belief – nor is it necessary to hold any spiritual belief at all. Water does not freeze because it gets religion – it freezes when the movement of cells shifts. No God figure required.
Reiki can be ‘shared’ completely clothed, on a massage table, while seated, standing or in the manner most appropriate for those involved.
Reiki can be ‘sent’ long distance. After 2nd level attunements a practitioner can ‘work’ with someone across the room or across the world.
Reiki simply infuses the body with more ‘Chi’ or ‘Ki’ life force energy to assist in the process of balancing and healing.
The component of Reiki I find to be most helpful is that it relaxes the physical body, mental and emotional bodies. Relaxation can be an important key to healing because in many cases what affects our health the most these days is very often caused or exacerbated by the level of stress in our daily life.
Scientific research is under way to learn more about how Reiki works. Reiki has shown an ability to reduce pain. The energetics of Reiki can promote sleep. It has been shown to assist in creating improved immune function and reduce the side-effect of drugs. These results have been and continue to be documented empirically.

Mentoring
I received my USUI Reiki Master Attunements in 1995.
My teacher was from direct lineage of Phyllis Furomoto.
My choice for teaching and attuning others to Reiki Energy is to mentor individual students, couples or small groups.
I find this best serves your personal assimilation of the attunements and information associated with becoming a Reiki Practitioner Level 1, 2 or Reiki Master.
FYI – there is an time period for integration of the energetics at each level attunement.
Please DO NOT ask to begin Reiki training with the intention of becoming a Master in a weekend or even a month.
I trust you will find a teacher willing to sell you that service if it is your desire.
Please contact me for more information if you are interested in being attuned to Reiki.
