Reiki as a Life Changing Modality

Many massage centers, spas, and wellness clinics offer an array of bodywork. The term “bodywork” describes any therapeutic, healing, or personal development technique that involves working with the human body including manipulative therapy (e.g., circulatory massage), breath work (e.g., Qigong), or energy medicine (e.g., Reiki). Bodywork may be used for pain and stress management, promote awareness of the “mind-body connection”, improve posture, and to manipulate a putative “energy field” surrounding the body and affecting the wellbeing of a person.
Reiki has been an integral part of my massage practice since 2004. As a massage therapist, I became interested in Reiki for self-healing with the intention of also using it with my clients. The term “Reiki” means Universal Life Force, and has been practiced for thousands of years. Although Reiki is believed to have originated in Tibet, it was introduced to the United States by a Japanese doctor and Tibetan Buddhist, Mikao Usui.
