Reiki Master Practitioner

I am a Reiki 3 Master Practitioner in Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki, which was introduced by Mikao Usui in the mid-20th Century. Originating from Japan, Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) is a technique to help stress reduction and relaxation. It also promotes healing by using a hands-on approach to help our ‘life force energy’ or ‘chi’ to flow. When we become stressed, this can lower our chi energy and make us feel unwell and more stressed.

The word Reiki is made up of two Japanese words – Rei which means “God’s Wisdom or Higher Power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. So Reiki essentially means “spiritually guided life force energy.”

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects including relaxation, well-being and, of course, healing.
