Reiki is a Japanese healing art that promotes relaxation, stress reduction, and overall well-being through gentle, non-invasive touch. Rooted in the concept of balancing the body’s natural energy, Reiki helps restore harmony to the mind, body, and spirit. During a typical Reiki session, the practitioner channels energy through the hands to support the body’s own healing processes, helping to release tension and promote deep calm. Whether used for recovery after training, emotional balance, or personal growth, Reiki offers a peaceful and restorative experience suitable for anyone seeking greater health and inner clarity.

How Does Reiki Work?
Reiki is a form of therapeutic touch that works with the body’s natural bioelectric energy to promote healing and balance. Rather than channeling an external force, practitioners interact with the body’s own electromagnetic field, using focused intent and awareness to guide its natural healing processes. Through gentle physical contact, complex feedback loops form between the nervous systems of both individuals, allowing subtle exchanges of emotional and energetic information. This co-regulation helps calm the body, reduce stress, and restore harmony. Typical Reiki sessions are performed with the recipient fully clothed, using hand placements that encourage relaxation and trigger the release of beneficial hormones like dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin, chemicals that elevate mood, relieve stress, and enhance overall well-being.
