Hi,
You may be aware that Dr. Oz has recommended millions to try Reiki energy healing on his show (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kZsJSW8pR0). This being the case, for anyone who may be wondering what Reiki is, I would like to briefly describe it in this forum, sharing some of my experiences as a practitioner.
To help understand what Reiki is, one may like to first think of Nature’s balance. People who watch documentaries may be familiar with the way Nature is unified and connected, with everything working in harmony and synergy to benefit the whole. The Japanese refer to this harmonizing force or organizing intelligence of Nature as Reiki. To further understand what Reiki is, one may like to next think of the way the cells and organs of living systems are also unified and connected synergistically just like the components of natural ecosystems or forests. Good health is synonymous with the way every part of the body functions harmoniously, just like the health and endurance of an ecosystem depends on its synchronicity. Life is nothing but incredibly advanced coherence itself in a universe permeated with Reiki.
The word*Reiki*is made of two*words - Rei which means “The Higher Power” and Ki which means “life force energy” (also commonly referred to as Chi or Qi or Qui as in Quigong or TaiQui). Receivers of Reiki directly experience the synchronizing force of the universe which feels very similar to heat as it flows out of the practitioner’s hands into the receiver’s body.
Although Western medicine may have some undeniable uses and benefits, alternative health practitioners often refer to it as disease care instead of health care. Receiving the Reiki energy has no side effects, no needles, and it recognizes no “incurable” diseases. In the online medical article database of the US National Library of Medicine, there exists a peer reviewed article on how Reiki even helps with Alzheimer’s disease (
Using Reiki to decrease memory and behavior problems in mild cognit... - PubMed - NCBI). In cases of patients with mild Alzheimer’s, the article reports that “Results indicated statistically significant increases in mental functioning (as demonstrated by improved scores of the AMMSE) and memory and behavior problems (as measured by the RMBPC) after*Reiki*treatment.”
I am certified in advanced degree Usui Reiki, and currently offer it in SW Florida at the OM Spa in North Naples (please Google contact information). During my practice for 12 years, I have had success in especially pain management in arthritis or back problems (you will be experiencing some pain relief after the first session). I have also had success in helping clients quit addictions and detoxify. A Reiki session can also be expected to improve high blood pressure, heart conditions, diabetes, obesity, lupus, asthma, allergies and much more. Healthy people can expect to ‘come alive’, feeling energized, invigorated and rejuvenated.
