Reiki dates back many years and is based upon a teaching thought to heal the body and illuminate the mind. It was rediscovered in the late 1800’s by Dr Mikao Usui and has been promoted as a therapy to calm the mind, body and soul so that healing may take place naturally. Although Reiki holds no particular faith or religion it is said to have its origins in the Buddhist practices of the Far East. The ethos of Reiki is to show the student a way to personal enlightenment and bring balance and understanding into their life.
