Reiki is a traditional Japanese relaxation technique which allows the physical, mental, and emotional bodies to enter complete rest and relaxation mode of self-healing.  Reiki comes from the rich history and tradition of the Tibetan Buddhist lineage, most recently brought into practice by Dr. Mikao Usui, whose methods are taught internationally to a growing number of home and clinical practitioners.
