What is Reiki
Reiki is a technique that uses “hands-on” and also "hands-off" healing that can assist in relieving or reducing pain and discomfort by balancing the body’s energy system. It is a natural process that supports relaxation and healing by removing blocks to the flow of energy in your body and facilitates balance and support on all levels. When the energy flow in your body is restored and/or balanced, you are more likely to feel relaxed and your body’s natural healing abilities are utilized.

How do these techniques work?
Everything in the universe is made up of energy. This life force or universal energy flows around us and is drawn into the body nourishing the cells, organs, and glands. When someone’s energy is depleted or imbalanced or the flow is restricted by stress, injury, illness, etc, one is more susceptible to discomfort, and further illness
