Reiki, also known as palm healing, is a Japanese healing technique which focuses on balancing the energy in a body. The theory behind the practice is quite complex, as it focuses not only on the health of the body but equally the mind and spirit as well. Reiki utilizes not only the energy meridians in the body, as with acupressure and cupping therapy, but also focuses on the 7 chakra, 7 areas running along the center of the body corresponding to different nerve bundles and glands in the body.

The reputed benefits of Reiki are manifold:

• Creates deep relaxation and aids the body to release stress and tension
• Accelerates the bodies’ self-healing abilities
• Facilitates better sleep
• Reduces blood pressure
• Helps with acute injuries and chronic problems
• Aides in the breaking of addictions
• Helps relieve pain
• Assists the body in cleaning itself from toxins
• And much more
