What is Reiki and what are the benefits?
The word Reiki comes from “Rei” meaning God’s wisdom or higher power, and “Ki” meaning life force energy. Combined, Reiki means “spiritually guided life force energy.”
Reiki therapy is an alternative healing modality that was developed in 1922 by Mikao Usui, a Japanese Buddhist. It is relaxing, reduces pain and reduces stress, which in and of itself promotes healing. Practitioners use “laying on hands,” mantras and blessings to clear the energy in the body and increase the flow of life force energy in order to clear the mental and emotional pollutants that interfere with life force energy and cause problems. If your life force energy is high and its flow through the body is free and unrestricted, life flows smoothly for you. If it is low, or if you suffer from energy blockages, you may suffer from physical and psychological problems and unwanted life situations.
Reiki is a wonderful complement to western medical treatments because it has no side effects and promotes a happy, positive mindset which is essential to healing. It has been proven that Reiki can help people suffering from various major and minor ailments. It is often used as a complementary therapy in a number of hospitals today. It enhances the health care the patient receives both in the hospital and from outpatient health care providers. Chemo-therapy patients who received Reiki noticed a marked decrease in side effects from treatment. Reiki is now suggested and often subsidized by Cancer Care Manitoba (if approved) and other medical practices. Reiki has not only helped patients with physical ailments but also helped those with minor psychological problems as well.
Reiki offers relief during emotional distress and sorrow. Reiki helps in the grieving process. It cleans and clears the emotions, preventing them from being so draining and offers perspective. Reiki does not direct the life force energy or manipulate it in any way – it is about clearing out the pollutants that prevent free energy flow. One of the greatest Reiki healing health benefits is stress reduction and relaxation, which triggers the body’s natural healing abilities (immune system), aids in better sleep and improves and maintains health. Reiki can be an effective way to treat immediate problems, such as physical or mental illness, recovery from surgery, but regular treatments can also improve overall health.
Reiki can help alleviate mood swings, fear, frustration and even anger. Reiki can also strengthen and heal personal relationships. Because Reiki enhances your capability to love, it can open you up to the people around you and help your relationships grow. By improving your capacity for empathy, Reiki allows you to connect with people on a deeper level. Reiki helps bring about inner peace and harmony. It can be valuable tool in the quest for spiritual growth.
Most people notice a significant difference after the first session and the benefits grow with repeated sessions. Mindset is critical. I like to think of Reiki as a drug free way to attain perfect bliss. The feeling after a treatment is peacefully glorious, deeply relaxing, and spiritually enlightening.
Who can receive Reiki?
Reiki is for everyone: it heals adults, babies, toddlers, children, elderly and pets.
Can anyone practice Reiki?
Yes! Interestingly, the ability to use Reiki is not “taught” but rather is transmitted from teacher to student in a class. The student undergoes an “attunement” that allows the student to feel and transmit life force energy. It is not a religious practice, so anyone who desires can learn Reiki without any religious beliefs. Learning Reiki is a beautiful way to promote more self-love, expand your awareness and perception, increase your consciousness, and help yourself and others live a potent and powerful healthy balanced life. I offer Level I, II, III and Master/Teacher level as well as Lightarian levels.

Reiki is a good integrative therapy to try because people generally start feeling better very quickly. As anxiety and pain lessen, and people feel hopeful about regaining their health, they feel more able to incorporate other needed health interventions or make needed lifestyle changes.
Each person's path of healing is unique, and the benefits that individuals attribute to their Reiki treatment are varied and numerous, but there are some benefits that are experienced more often than not. Besides the immediate feeling of profound relaxation, the following benefits are commonly reported:
