Reiki is a healing technique that is based on the channeling of energy through the hands and is recognized as Alternative Therapy by the World Health Organization. Its origin was located in Japan in the late nineteenth century and its founder, Mikao Usui, conveyed the way of channeling energy that works with Reiki that we can all use to our benefit.

The technique consists of the application of the hands in the energetic centers called chakras, as well as in the areas where there is pain or discomfort. These energy centers are directly connected with the organs and glands of the body, so that with the energy Reiki reinforces the own energy of the body, helping to recover its state of harmony and well-being.

Through the transmission of the universal vital energy, which is present in all living beings, the organism reacts and manages to activate its own self-healing mechanisms. Reiki activates the body’s natural systems to achieve balance and promotes the reaction of the immune system.

One of the most extraordinary features of Reiki is the absence of contraindications for the recipient.

The results of therapy can be spectacular in the short term or more gradual over time. In any case, the receipient will always notice an improvement in their anxiety levels, because the continued sessions of Reiki achieve a state of relaxation and provide greater psychic well-being. In this way, it is an exellent technique for treating anxiety, stress or depression.

Complementary therapy

Reiki is also an excellent Complementary Therapy for those who are subjected to aggressive treatments or suffering from serious illnesses and chronic ailments. The scope of action of Reiki is very broad, and this is demonstrated by the research that is done on its practice across the planet in various organisms and institutions.

An interesting case of research is the one carried out by the University Autonomous of Madrid on 150 women diagnosed with fibromyalgia. All of them received a weekly session of Reiki over a month and the results were effective, as they reported a decrease in pain and physical fatigue.

One of the great things about Reiki is that it is compatible and complementary with any type of treatment, whether allopathic or natural. In all cases, it is very useful, because it is a therapy that brings peace and strength to take on the battle against disease.
