Reiki is a Japanese energy healing therapy where a practitioner channels universal life force energy to a recipient to promote balance, relaxation, and overall well-being. During a session, the practitioner places their hands on or near the recipient’s body to facilitate the transfer of energy, with the goal of removing blockages and enhancing the body’s natural healing abilities. While not a religion, Reiki is a spiritual practice based on the idea of a life force energy (ki) that flows through all living things, helping to release stress, reduce pain, and improve sleep quality.
