Reiki is a spiritual healing practice that originated in Japan in the 20th century. Practitioners believe it can heal a person by unlocking emotional or spiritual blockages. During a session, the practitioner moves their hands around the person’s body without touching them. Critics question its scientific efficacy, but practitioners see it as a complementary form of treatment.

Reiki is a form of spiritual healing that dates back to the 20th century in Japan. Created by the Buddhist Sensei Mikao Usui, it is said to heal a person through the energy that flows from the practitioner’s palms. Reiki came to the United States through the work of Hawayo Takata, who was born in Hawaii to Japanese parents. Hawayo Takata tried Reiki on one of his visits to Japan, and believed that he eventually avoided three surgeries thanks to the treatment. In 1937, he became the first outsider to receive a first degree Reiki certification.

The name literally means “spiritual/soul energy.” Practitioners believe that Reiki can help unlock emotional or spiritual blockages that cause illness. Instead of focusing on treating the symptoms of a disease, it works on the causes. By using universal life energy, Reiki can heal a person, even if the practitioner doesn’t know what is wrong.

During a Reiki session, a practitioner will ask the patient to lie down on a table after removing their shoes and jewelry. He will then move his hands around the person’s body, without actually touching him. During the process, the practitioner’s hand usually gets warm, which is said to be a sign that energy is flowing through it. It is important to note that the energy received does not come from the practitioner herself; she is simply channeling the energy of the universe. Some people experiencing Reiki for the first time have an intense emotional reaction. This is considered normal.

Because Reiki works with energy, it sometimes takes several visits before a difference can be seen or felt. Also, the results are often said to be subtle and vary from person to person. However, practitioners believe that it works for everyone and any condition.

Some critics allude to the lack of scientific evidence to support Reiki. While it is true that there are no studies showing the efficacy of Reiki in treating certain medical conditions, practitioners point out that it should be considered as a complementary form of treatment, not a replacement for medical care.
