What is Reiki? Reiki (ray-key) is an ancient Japanese hands-on-energy healing that helps with stress reduction and releases blockages in our body.

Reiki is a multi-faceted spiritual energy that can be used to help with meditation practices, spiritual growth, healing relationships, manifestation of goals and activating the Divine healing power within all living beings.

The Japanese Kanji characters are translated as follows:

Rei - Spiritually guided or wisdom of God and

Ki - Life force energy.

A Reiki Session: - A treatment feels like warm, gentle sunshine which flows through you, surrounds you and brings comfort. Reiki treats the person's body, emotions, mind and spirit as a whole. Reiki is powerful, yet wonderfully gentle and nurturing. During a treatment, you remain fully clothed and lie on a treatment table. Reiki supports any medical, or supplemental healing methods a client may be using and is a growing interest to chiropractors, medical doctors, physiotherapists, psychotherapists, psychologists and hypnotherapists.

Many hospitals, cancer treatment centres and Hospice centres routinely incorporate alternative therapies for their patients/clients. Listed below are some of the centres that have incorporated Reiki into their daily operations:

M.D. Anderson Cancer Centre: A world-renowned cancer treatment hospital, a staff of over 12,000 and a progressive hospital that established the Place of Wellness clinic in 2001 and began offering Reiki to patients in 2003.

National Institutes of Health, Warren Grant Magnuson Clinical Centre: Each year 68,000 outpatients participate in clinical research trials. The patients have a wide range of conditions which include metastatic cancer, infectious disease, mental and genetic disorders. This program is funded by Congress and integrates Reiki and other complementary care into the rigorous research setting at the clinic.

The California Pacific Medical Center's Reiki Program: The largest hospital in Northern California offers a Health and Healing Clinic promoting Reiki and other complimentary therapies. Dr. Mike Cantwell provides Reiki treatments along with Reiki practitioners. Dr. Cantwell states: "I have found Reiki to be useful in the treatment of acute illnesses such as musculosketal injury / pain, headache, acute infections and asthma. Reiki is also beneficial to patients with illnesses associated with chronic pain".
