Reiki
Reiki is a complimentary holistic modality that uses a gentle, hands-on approach to overall well being of the mind and body. The Japanese word Reiki roughly translates to “universal life force energy” and is practiced with the intention of removing negative energy within the body and creating a positive balance to promote health from within.
As this practice requires no movement or mobilization of the tissues or fluids of the body, it is an excellent option for people who have certain conditions that prevent them from having massage. Reiki can, in contrast, also be used to augment other therapies such as massage therapy or reflexology.
