Reiki, is a Japanese word defined as "Universal life force", or is also known as the "energy of the universe which surrounds us."

When activated, this life force energy brings the recipient into better harmony by accelerating the body’s natural healing abilities.

Reiki, a natural energy healing technique, was discovered by Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese scholar and teacher in the 1910's. While retreating at a temple on Mount Kurama in Kyoto, Japan Dr. Usui received inspiration on how to bring Reiki energy through an attunement process and the placement of one’s hands on a recipient’s body.
