Reiki is an alternative energy-healing practice where a practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above the body to channel a universal life force.

​

The word "Reiki" comes from two Japanese words: rei, meaning universal, and ki, meaning life energy. Created in Japan in the 1920s by Mikao Usui, the practice aims to reduce stress, promote deep relaxation, and support the body's natural ability to balance.
