What is Reiki Therapy?
Reiki is a type of wellness bodywork, often referred to as energy work, that originated in Japan. The word 'Reiki' comes from the Japanese words “rei,” meaning universal, and “ki,” meaning life energy. This energy, which is also known as 'ki' or 'qi,' can become disrupted or weakened, leading to symptoms of physical or emotional imbalance. Reiki practitioners channel this energy in order to remove any blocks in its flow, which in turn enables healing to take place. The primary purpose of reiki is to promote a state of deep relaxation, which then triggers the body's innate healing abilities, thus promoting and accelerating the healing process. This non-invasive therapy is used to support the physical body and to promote a balanced mind and emotions. Reiki is a natural and safe method of spiritual healing. Reiki energy works on emotional, physical and spiritual levels. The wonderful relaxation that Reiki gives can help people to deal with the daily challenges and hard times in a much better way. As a certif. Reiki-Master in Usui-Reiki, I have more than 20 years of experiences with this, including distance healing. |
Benefits of the Reiki Therapy
Reiki therapy has a two-fold benefit: it works both by reducing stress and promoting healing. Stress reduction from Reiki therapy works by promoting relaxation. One of stress' many harmful effects on the body is that it activates what is commonly known as the body's "fight or flight" response. When the body is stressed, the sympathetic nervous system is activated and the body is prepared for danger: blood leaves the vital organs and goes to the muscles and limbs, which can protect the body from harm in a dangerous situation. However, if the fight or flight response is constantly in effect, day in and day out, then the constant releasing of those stress hormones and the resulting increased heart rate, blood pressure, and the like will take a harmful toll on the body. Reiki therapy helps to calm the mind and slow down the sympathetic nervous system, which is key in stress reduction. Another way in which Reiki therapy reduces stress is by promoting an increased sense of self-worth and being at peace. When a person can experience a mental and emotional state of relaxation and well-being, that person's overall mood and outlook on life becomes better. As one feels better, one will do better. Alleviating stress is important in that it promotes a positive lifestyle: by reducing one's stress levels through Reiki therapy, one is more able to effectively manage and cope with life's daily problems. By providing a person with increased mental and emotional strength and better coping mechanisms for tackling the issues that cause stress in the first place, Reiki therapy has lasting stress management and stress reduction benefits.

More benefits of Reiki
On top of reducing stress, Reiki therapy stimulates the body's natural healing abilities, or in other words the body's built-in "rest and digest" parasympathetic nervous system. This balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems can be thought of as both what fosters the body's own healing mechanisms while also in that healing being promoted and expounded upon through the effects of Reiki therapy. And more, Reiki therapy can be a proactive way of treating the symptoms of some other anxiety/depression based disorders, such as PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), one of the potential range of anxiety disorders which is often characterized by the body's functioning in a state of constant sympathetic nervous arousal. Reiki therapy has been shown to aid in lessening PTSD symptoms. Also, when the positive wellness results and the increased capacity for joy from Reiki treatment's stress reduction are combined with the proper generation of cure from the body's own healing systems, the human body as a whole benefits from the Reiki sessions. Reiki treatments create a special measurable relaxation response from the body. Reiki brings the body to a calm state, known as homeostasis. This is important in improving the physical and mental conditions of our body. Reiki brings with it relaxation, comfort, and healing. The flow of Reiki energy removes the negative energy from the body. In the next step, it realigns the energy in the meridian system in the body. This improves the body's ability to heal itself and balances the body's energy. The patients then regain a better physical and mental performance. Reiki helps to heal physically, mentally, and spiritually. Reiki therapy is not only focused on one way of healing. It is based on the body's natural response to healing. |
