Reiki practitioners believe that pain and illness are often caused by blocked or imbalanced energy.
During a session the practitioner uses light touch or hands held just above the body channel into areas that need healing. Reiki is often a soothing, holistic approach to managing pain. While it is not a replacement for medical treatment, it is a gentle technique that may complement traditional therapies and help reduce discomfort by promoting relaxation, restoring, balancing, and enhancing overall wellness.
