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.

Sound Healing in Many Holistic Modalities
For thousands of years, music and sounds have been used in sound healing rituals and prayer for healing. In modern times, sound healers, energy healers, spiritual healers, and Reiki practitioners incorporate sound healing tools and toning into healing and chakra balancing therapies. Sound healing although perhaps one of the oldest components of sacred healing in now becoming an important recognized aspect in many healing modalities.
Sound, Music, and the use of one's Voice can all produce profound changes in one’s emotional, mental, and physical experience, and can transform one’s health as a result of these experiences. Sound is a powerful healing tool, because it is vibrational in nature, and we are all vibrational beings. References to sound healing date back to biblical times and are recognized by cultures across the globe. In John 1:1, it reads; "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Words are both sounds and vibrational energetic containers, and the words we choose and how we use to use them have profound effects on ourselves and those who hear us.
Sound, language, and music can all be felt without understanding the finite meaning of the words used, we can decipher a feeling, intention, and emotion connected to our experiences with sound. With sound healing we believe the sounds we are exposed to have the potential to change our own vibration, as it is the nature of sound to resonate. Resonance occurs when an object begins to vibrate at a particular frequency. This can be demonstrated using two tuning forks, striking just one and then move it towards the other. The second fork will begin vibrating with the same frequency as a result of resonance. The same principal applies to sound healing when we are exposed to harmonious sound waves our bodies and energy fields also resonate to the sounds thus restoring our natural vibrations.
The intentional use of sounds for healing can be recorded and used in music, chanting, and individual tones. Sound healing can combine, scientifically identified frequencies, sounds of nature, instruments, binaural beats, and voice. Shaman and healers may use sounds to move energy, balance chakras, open the heart, and clear the energy field. Sound healing can also be experienced on a physical level where sound is converted to vibration and broadcast through healing tables and chairs like those available through soundhealingtemple.com Sound healing is an extremely relaxing and beneficial form of holistic healing. It can be experienced in…
