Reiki

In 1922 Mikao Usui founded the original style of Reiki in Japan. His intent was to assist those on the path to health and well being, along with providing a means of attaining Anshin Ritsumei (enlightenment or happiness). Reiki energy is the high vibration of love & harmony affecting us on our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels. Reiki treats the source of problems rather than just the symptoms, and is effective yet very gentle and non-invasive. Reiki can be used for the benefit of people, animals, plants, trees, food, cleansing space, the environment and more. We are instructed in techniques to perform distance treatments when the healee is at a separate location. Past disharmony (past lives) can be cured with persistent use. Reiki treatments aren’t just for illness and disease. They are a proactive form of maintenance to create an overall sense of well being and to eradicate potential health concerns.

A handy aspect of Reiki is we can perform full self treatments. There are many different styles of Reiki and we all use different techniques. Some Practitioners touch the Healee while others work slightly above the body. It isn’t our own energy as we simply channel this wonderful healing energy. The Practitioner and Healee work together as a team. Reiki goes where it is most needed and cannot be directed by us, so it’s impossible to “do it wrong”.

Reiki effectively treats acute and chronic pain, and all forms of pathogens. It aids organ and body system processes. Inducing deeply calming and relaxing states makes Reiki a popular treatment for stress. It has been successful with: ADD, ADHD, kidney stones, gall stones, ovarian cysts, decreased concentrations of suppressor T-Cells, significant changes in hemoglobin and hematocrit values, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, joint concerns, back ailments, depression, symptoms of menstruation, PMS and menopause, and chronic headaches and migraines to name a few. Most of us are too acidic, though our bodies function better in an alkaline state. Reiki can adjust our pH level by reducing acidity, thereby helping the body release harmful toxins. It eases symptoms resulting from chemotherapy and radiation reducing the person’s recovery period. This gentle healing energy is also an effective preoperative and postoperative treatment. Many cancer hospices / centers within the Toronto Niagara Region have Reiki practitioners on hand.

Quantum Physics research has proven that during treatments the brain waves of the practitioner and healee synchronize in the alpha state which is synonymous with deep relaxation and meditative states.

Further research has shown that the brainwaves of the practitioner and healee pulse in unison to the Earth’s magnetic pull, known as the Schumann Resonance. During those moments the biomagnetic field of the practitioner’s hands (the healing energy) is up to 1000 times greater than normal. Cat Scans, MRIs, fMRIs, EEGs, EKGs and SQUID Magnetometers are just a few devices utilized in research trials.

Reiki is no longer invisible and intangible. If you haven’t already…come try it out.
