What today is called Reiki is the spiritual practice Mikao Usui founded, which is the vibrations of love and harmony of universal energy. There are healers that use their own life force and other energies, but Reiki uses only the powerful vibrations of unconditional love and harmony directly from the universe. This is why all Reiki practitioners have studied under a Reiki Shihan (teacher), and most have completed 2 or more levels; level one focuses on self-healing. Reiki Shihans (teachers) have completed 4 or more levels. The Reiki Healing Calistoga, CA sessions are conducted by the most experienced teachers.

The word Reiki is made up of two smaller words: "Rei" means Universal spirit energy, while "ki" represents your personal spirit energy. The concept of "ki" in Japanese, "chi" in Chinese, "prana" in the Indian Hindu religion. "Rei" is key to the teachings of Dr. Usui as is refers to the life force that animates, gives life to all form.

Reiki is a spiritual and medical practice developed by a Japanese Buddhist in 1922 by the name of Mikao Usui. As a noun it signifies the universal energy that is present within each of us. Reiki healers transfer energy through their hands to their patients which can help to facilitate healing from a wide array of diseases and conditions. There are two main branches of healing, Traditional Japanese Healing, and Western Reiki.

One of the major perks to Reiki as a healing modality is its general flexibility. Although understood by many to be a "spiritual energy", it need not be viewed in this way. Considering a form of healing to be "spiritual" often implies a certain amount of exclusivity, because almost every person has his or her own idea of what that means. Some people don't consider themselves "spiritual" and it is easy to get wrapped up in terms and even easier to feel excluded as a result of using them.

There is also one particularly secretive section of Japanese Reiki healers who are thought to practice the same method of the treatment used originally by Mikao Usui. Traditional Japanese Reiki also does not focus as much on meridian lines and chakras as western healers do. Western healers tend to focus more on hand placement looking to particular chakras than the traditional Japanese Reiki Healers do.

As the Shihan or practitioner scans over the body, their hands stop over any area where inharmonic vibrations are notice and remain there until balance is restored. The Shihan's or practitioner's hands either gently rest on noninvasive areas of your body, or are held a few inches away -- either way the energy flows to where it is needed. At the beginning and end of the session an aura cleansing, or other Japanese technique is used to balance and brush away all inharmonic vibrations (blocks), and your energy field (aura) is cleansed and adjusted.

There are a wide variety of practical uses for this treatment. One of the main uses is for treating health issues. It has been known to treat anything from the common cold to serious illnesses like cancer. It can be used as an alternative to traditional health care or alongside traditional health care. Many have found that it has caused them to not need as much or any of their prescription medication.

Under the therapy, the Reiki expert puts the subject in a low illuminated room for bringing in concentration and focus, to give relaxed setting. At many instances soft music and perfumes are used for achieving quick relaxation. The process tends to work best when there is increased relaxation. For centuries this concept has been beneficial for healing. You should approach it with an open mind, as well as a willing body when you want to get the best results. Keep in mind that any negative resistance can and will cause problems.
