Reiki Healing

Ancient Energy Medicine for Modern Life

Reiki is both ancient and quietly revolutionary. It is soft, subtle, and deeply powerful — a form of energy healing that works with the body’s natural intelligence to restore balance, calm the nervous system, and support emotional and physical wellbeing.

In today’s fast-paced world, many people arrive at Reiki not because something is “wrong,” but because something feels out of alignment. Reiki offers a gentle way back — no force, no fixing, and no judgement.

Whether you are new to Reiki healing or seeking a regular practice to support your wellbeing, this guide will help you understand what Reiki is, where it comes from, how it works, and how it may support you through private sessions or ongoing healing memberships.

The Origins of Reiki

Reiki originated in Japan in the early 1900s, developed by spiritual teacher Mikao Usui. The word Reiki comes from two Japanese concepts:

• Rei — universal wisdom, higher consciousness

• Ki — life force energy that flows through all living things

Together, Reiki translates to Universal Life Force Energy — the same energy recognised across cultures as Prana, Chi, or Qi.

Usui’s teachings emphasised Reiki not just as a healing technique, but as a way of living with awareness, balance, and compassion. Over time, Reiki has spread globally and is now practised in wellness clinics, hospitals, private studios, and holistic centres around the world.

Today, Reiki is increasingly recognised as a complementary therapy, supporting stress reduction, nervous system regulation, and emotional wellbeing alongside modern medicine.

What Is Reiki Healing?

Reiki is a non-invasive energy healing practice that works holistically — addressing the physical body, emotional patterns, mental stress, and spiritual alignment.

During a Reiki healing session, the practitioner gently channels the energy to the recipient. This energy flows to where it is needed most, helping the body return to a state of balance.

Reiki does not involve manipulation, massage, or diagnosis. It supports the body’s own healing response and can be received in person or through distance Reiki healing, with equal effectiveness.

Many clients describe Reiki as deeply relaxing — often feeling calmer, lighter, clearer, and more grounded after a session.

The Levels of Reiki Training

Reiki is traditionally taught through progressive levels, each deepening the practitioner’s relationship with energy.

Reiki Level One – Foundations & Self-Healing

Level One focuses on:

• Self-healing and hands-on Reiki

• Learning the history and principles of Reiki

• Opening energetic channels through attunement

This level is ideal for anyone seeking personal healing, stress relief, or a deeper connection with their own energy.

Reiki Level Two – Emotional & Distance Healing

At Level Two, practitioners learn Reiki symbols and distance healing techniques.

This level supports:

• Emotional healing and mental clarity

• Distance Reiki healing (across time and space)

• Clearing subconscious patterns and stress

Many people experience profound emotional release and increased intuition at this stage.

Reiki Master Level – Spiritual Depth & Teaching

The Master level is both personal and spiritual.

It allows practitioners to:

• Work with the Master symbol

• Attune others to Reiki

• Deepen spiritual awareness and purpose

Not all Masters teach — many integrate Reiki into healing practices, holistic businesses, public speaking, or spiritual mentorship.

Reiki Symbols and Their Purpose

Reiki symbols are energetic tools used to focus intention and enhance healing.

• Cho Ku Rei — strengthens energy flow and grounding

• Sei He Ki — supports emotional and mental balance

• Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen — enables distance healing

• Dai Ko Myo — spiritual healing and soul alignment

Symbols are not magical drawings — they are frequencies activated through intention, presence, and training. 

The symbols are listed in order to reflect the images below:

1. Usui Reiki

Traditional, grounding, and accessible — ideal for stress relief and balance.

Focused on compassion, trauma healing, and subconscious patterns.

3. Kundalini Reiki
