Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation. Known to promote healing, Reiki activates, directs, and applies natural, universal life energy and is applicable for all purposes, conditions and situations. During Reiki, the practitioner lays his or her hands on different parts of the body to balance a client's life force energy. High life force energy flow promotes well-being and good health while low life force energy flow often leads to sickness and disease.

Reiki is a modality of bodywork suitable for anyone. It is especially therapeutic when massage is contraindicated due to significant illness or for clients who are simply uncomfortable with the prospect of massage, but desire healing touch.
