What is Reiki?
Reiki is the ancient healing art of channeling universal energy – or ‘Chi’ - to heal and harmonise the body. It is said to bring you back into equilibrium by balancing the seven major chakras (energy centres) in the body. It works on the connection between mind and body, in the belief that deepening the power of the mind can be one of our best healing tools.
As Reiki is non-invasive it is very safe and can be used without fear of side effects or overdose. It is often effective alongside conventional medication or natural remedies, acting as a ‘complementary’ treatment.
There are many different types of Reiki - the more traditional forms are Usui and Tibetan Reiki, but other more recently developed forms, such as Shamballa Reiki, have become increasingly popular.
