What is Reiki?
 Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) is an energy-based healing modality. In use since the 1920s, it is a discipline with ties to traditional Japanese
and Chinese medical theory. A non-invasive technique, Reiki is used on its own merits as an effective way of assisting with a variety of ailments.
It is particularly good for inducing relaxation, reducing pain and stress, increasing vitality, assisting the body's natural healing abilities,
and generally giving one a sense of balance. Reiki can also be used in conjunction with other therapies (medical, psychological, and bodywork,
to name a few) to enhance the benefits and results that these modalities provide.
Treatments do not involve pressure, manipulation, or massage. Reiki practitioners rest their hands gently on or above specific areas of one's clothed body,
and energy is projected directly into the energy field and drawn into the physical being by the client.
This energy is self-dispersing; it flows naturally into deficient areas and also assists your body in re-balancing its own energy.

The Japanese word 'Reiki' consists of two charactors.
The first charactor 'REI' means the cosmic, universal,
and
The second charactor 'KI' means the fundamental life force,
i.e. 'energy', also known as a Chinese word 'Qi'.
