About Reiki
Dr. Mikao Usui's "Method to Achieve Personal Perfection"
Reiki' (pronounced "Ray Kee") is a Japanese word frequently translated as "Universal Life-Force Energy" - the 'soul force' or 'spiritual power' inherent in everything. The word is comprised of two parts (Japanese Kanji): - 'Rei' - an intention to work with the 'sacred' or 'all-knowing' force which understands and knows how to heal everything; and 'Ki' the life-force energy which is present, in some form, within everything - including us - to bring about a holistic balancing, harmonizing and healing of all aspects of the person - body, mind, emotions and sprit.
INTRODUCED BY
Introduced in Japan by Dr. Mikao Usui around April 1922 it was not until the late 1930s, early 1940s that Dr. Chujiro Hayashi (a Japanese Naval Officer, Doctor and student of Usui's) and Hawayo Takata (an American woman of Japanese descent) introduced Reiki in the U.S.
HISTORICALLY
Historically, attitudes to Reiki between Japan and the rest of the world have been fundamentally different. In Japan, it has been considered a spiritual path of lifetime devotion with physical healing being secondary to attaining 'personal perfection'. The Western approach mainly considers Reiki as a way of healing the physical body - an alternative to other treatments.
Reiki does not use massage, pressure or manipulation and does not require the Reiki Practitioner to be physically present when providing a treatment. Treatments can be hands-on or hands-off and yes... it can even be sent over distances - no matter how small or great they are!
