Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that uses the hands to send out positive, healing energy to the body. There are no needles used; instead, the practitioner places their hands on specific points on the body and sends out loving energy. Reiki is practiced by placing the palms together at the center front of the chest (heart area) and then moving them down toward the knees. You should feel a tingling sensation as the energy moves from the heart to the extremities. Reiki is a great way to relax and unwind after a long day. It's also a good way to prepare yourself before going into surgery. Reiki is a wonderful complement to any type of traditional medical treatment. It can help reduce the need for medication while promoting overall wellness.
