Reiki treatments in Glossop

The word reiki means" universal life force energy". A life force energy which flows through and around all living things. The system of healing known as reiki originates from Japan where its founder Mikao Usui put together a healing system which had practical ways to live in harmony and balance.

It is a natural healing method which has been influenced by a number of spiritual traditions. 

 Reiki is not a religion and currently is used by people from all walks of life who wish to find balance and peace in everyday situations and circumstances.

 People can choose to have a course of treatments, learn the system for their own well being and that of their family, or decide to do both.

Some people decide they wish to become professional practitioners and so take further training. 

Reiki is not dissimilar to other energy systems where by the energy is directed for optimum health. For example Tai Chi is a practice of movement where chi is moved around the body to balance the person. Another example would be acupuncture where needles are inserted in specific energy points to relieve a variety of conditions. Ancient Indian systems describe in detail how the chakra system and the aura contribute to our health. 

It is believed that the root cause of illness often lies in the energy body of an individual.

A reiki practitioner works with this energy through light, gentle, butterfly touch to balance the energy centres of the person receiving the treatment. In this way reiki acts as a catalyst to promote the natural healing mechanisms of the person. There are many benefits in receiving a reiki treatment which lasts 1 hour.
