What is Reiki
What is Reiki?
Reiki when translated, means universal life force energy from the Japanese language. The Reiki modality is a newly popular form of energy healing, originally created by Dr. Mikao Usui. It is said that a simple transfer of rites may be passed by a Master-Teacher to students who can then apply this energy as a Reiki practitioner. Once a student has received an atonement from a Reiki Master he or she is said to be capable of giving Reiki treatments to others. Reiki certifications come in different levels, and in some locations students can receive a certification in a single day, or just a few hours. It is said that Reiki is harmless, but I would question this assumption and recommended you look for practitioners who have other more advanced certifications as well. Finding a licensed Massage Therapist, Chiropractor, Physical Therapist, or accomplished healer who also uses Reiki is likely to be a safer and better choice, especially if you are new to this type of therapy.Reiki is a non-invasive technique, with some gentle touching to allow energy to move into the body as needed. It is now practiced worldwide and is commonly found in modern hospitals and medical facilities including those in the USA. Typically a Reiki session is done in a quiet massage or spa like setting, where the client will lie on a massage table, or chair, and relax. The Reiki practitioner will allow the passage of Reiki energy through their hands, and transfer it by gently placing their hands on different areas of the client’s body. Often a client may fall into a deep state of relaxation or fall asleep during a Reiki session. Some people may experience a feeling of warmth, or waves of energy or a tingling sensation. Reiki can help to balance emotions, and bring a sense of calm and peace to the client.
Afterwards clients may feel tired, relaxed, or dreamy and may require a number of hours or days for the energy to fully integrate. The benefits of Reiki Energy are like those of other energy healing modalities that aim to bring balance and harmony to our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health. It is easy to locate a practitioner in most major cities, but take the time to find someone who is well qualified and is a good match for you.

Energy Healing
Although Energy healing has been around for hundreds of years it has recently become accepted and used in professional medicine and hospitals around the world. There are a large number of modalities and styles of energy healing, spiritual healing, and hands on healing and this presents a challenge to regulate practitioners, compare differences for clients, and makes the scientific aspects more difficult to understand. Energy healing can be as basic as massage work with the intention of allowing chi or naturally occurring energy to be exchanged, or can be as complex as working with a person who has spent their life in a healing practice or study of alternative healing sciences. Some practitioners tune their skills with time and practice while others may spend years in training at schools like BBSH (Barbara Brennan Schools of Healing) where students can spend 4 or more years learning advanced techniques in working with energy healing to earn a degree and begin working with energy healing and the human energy field.
Dr. Barbara Brennan the founder of BBSH, claims to be the worlds premiere school for transformation and healing through the Human Energy Field. Barbara has contributed numerous books and thousands of hours of research and study to energy healing over the last 35 years. Her best selling book (Hands of Light®) is considered the best in the field, and perhaps the most in depth book ever written on energy healing. She holds a Doctorate of Philosophy, a Doctorate of Theology, a Master's Degree in Atmospheric Physics, B.S. in Physics, and worked as a research scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. Many other professionals are now also dedicating their lives to energy healing and bringing new modalities into schools and services for all to benefit from.
Energy Healing is a powerful quickly emerging modality that is growing all over the world. There are numerous practitioners and healers available, but ultimately it is the responsibility of the client to do the research and find a healer who’s approach, education, and style fits their particular needs. Energy healing can bring consciousness to many parts of us, that we may have forgotten or left behind, it can be a deeply personal and transformational experience. Through awareness, consciousness, wisdom, and healing, the journey of energy healing can bring peace, harmony, health, and love back to those who commit to this experience. (more…)…
