reiki
Our bodies carry an innate capacity to heal. Reiki is a practice that uses gentle touch to support this natural healing process and promote balance in every aspect of our being.
Though it remains a folk art and spiritual practice, practitioners are now found in hospitals, hospice programs, and medical settings worldwide.
While many forms of Reiki exist today, the tradition I practice has been passed through the lineage of Mikao Usui, Chujiro Hayashi, Hawayo Takata, Phyllis Lei Furumoto, and Johannes Reindl. I was taught by Susan Mitchell—a student of Hawayo Takata and Phyllis Lei Furumoto.
This specific form of practice is known as Usui Shiki Ryoho, which in English is translated as the Usui System of Natural Healing.
