What is Reiki?
It’s a system of healing originating in Japan. The word ‘Reiki’ means ‘universal life energy’, the vital energy around and within all living things. The therapist uses both hands resting lightly on the body and distant healing techniques are used. The therapist treats those parts of the body he or she senses are emitting weak energy, by laying their hands close to the site of the problem, this enables energy to start to flow through the therapist’s hands to the client. What does a Reiki treatment entail? The client lies on a massage table. The therapist’s hands rest lightly in a sequence of positions on the fully clothed body, the aim being to provide a gentle warming of vital energy. A treatment lasts approximately one hour. Reiki can be used to treat acute problems such as accidental injuries as well as chronic problems such as asthma, eczema and headaches. Please telephone 01342 842726 or email
