The recipient of the Reiki should be comfortable, clothes, and relaxed. The intention is to speed healing, reduce pain, and decrease negative symptoms that the recipient might be feeling through the transmission of the universal life energy.
Reiki, pronounced ray-key, is an ancient practice that originated in Japan. The words ‘rei’ and ‘ki’ in Japanese refer to the universal life energy that flows all around us. Reiki practices the laying of hands on people to focus this life force for healing, balancing the energies inside our bodies to promote health and wellbeing.
