Reiki to the Rescue

Trouble sleeping? High blood pressure? Weak immune system?

These are conditions that can affect the general health and wellness of many Americans, causing them to seek out treatment from a general practitioner who may prescribe drugs or recommend surgeries which often come with dangerous risks and side effects.

Holistic healing is a term that more of us are coming to understand as the alternative medicine practice of addressing the whole person with the condition, rather than only treating the symptoms of the condition that the person has.

One popular method of holistic medicine that treats the person rather than the disease is the ancient Japanese healing modality of reiki which incorporates many forms of alternative medicine including meditation, homeopathy, aromatherapy, spiritual healing and naturopathy.

Through the transfer of energy from the specialist to the patient the body’s natural capacity to heal itself takes over and restores its own inner balance. This healing works by detoxifying the body’s internal systems, breaking down blocks of energy flow and augmenting the body’s vibrational frequency.

Reiki can help treat chronic conditions such as headaches, asthma and eczema as well as acute pain or injury, addictions and assist in recovery from cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation.
