By definition, RE=spiritual or sacred and KI= energy. Therefore REIKI= spiritual energy, also known as universal lifeforce energy. Receiving reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of spiritual healing. A trained and certified reiki master or practitioner uses their hands to channel the universal energy into the receiver for healing, whether in person treatment or long distance.
We are all born with reiki energy as all living things are of the universe. Think back on your life when you smacked your elbow hard or hit your shin on something, what is the first thing you do? (besides hoot or holler lol) If your answer is touch, hold, rub the pain out with your hands, well, that is an example of reiki...
