Reiki is a Bon Tibetan tradition that started over 18,000 years ago.  It was Rediscovered in Japan by Mikao Usui in the late 1800's.  It is unirversal life force energy.  A hand touch healing or energetic field energy healing for physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.  The energy is spirit guided,  I am a conduit it flows through me not from me.  There are 7 chakras throughout the body which are located at the base of the spine, sacral, stomach, heart, throat, brow and crown. Imagine them as a bloomed flower in each location.  They should be fully opened and spinning.  When they are closed like a rosebud there could be potential problems. For example if a spine was closed you could be having back or leg pain as well as obesity, hoarding, fear fullness and restlessness.  Another example would be if your brow is closed you could be having headaches, migraines, nightmares, delusions, difficulty concentrating, poor memory or poor vision.  Holistic medicine should be considered before seeing your physician (unless there is immediate danger).  The physician is trained on a specific area and prescribe a specific drug that usually will cause other issues.  Reiki opens the chakras and allows the energy to flow freely throughout your body.  I am not a Dr. and I do not diagnose if you feel you need to see your physician you probably should. This is an alternative holistic healing.  Some of the benefits are:  love, harmony, peace, heals relationships, addictions, harmonizes left and right side of the brain, stress reduction and relaxation which triggers the bodies natural healing abilities. Reiki along with sound therapy will give you an amazing feeling of wellness.
