Introducing Reiki through 'Kasasha Heals Too'

Reiki is a form of energy healing that works in tandem with other modalities of healing. 

The word Reiki is made up of two different Japanese words: “rei” = “universal” and “ki” =”energy” or “life force”. Reiki represents the “life force energy”.  The belief is that there is an unseen energy that flows through all living things. This energy is believed to be around us at all times and is believed to be what creates and sustains life.

It’s a very simple and powerful healing technique that aids to balance out the energy systems of the body which often leads to improvements in health, better stress management, and an overall improved sense of wellbeing.

The belief is that if someone’s life force energy is low or blocked, they are more likely to become ill or encounter imbalances.

If someone’s life force energy is high and flowing smoothly through the body (i.e., through the meridians), then the person is more likely to be resilient to disease and be happier, healthier and more in balance.

The goal of balancing the person’s energy is very similar to that of acupuncture or acupressure. The main difference is that, with Reiki, the Practitioner does not necessarily need to touch the body — Reiki can be done “hands-on” or “hands-off”. It can be done in person or via a distance healing session
