Reiki is a gentle, hands-on healing technique that reduces stress by generating deep, tranquil relaxation. It promotes harmony to the body, mind, and spirit which accelerates the body's natural tendency to heal itself.
Reiki is derived from the Japanese words rei, meaning "universal", and ki, which refers to the vital life force energy that flows through all living things. It was developed by Mikao Usui in the early 1900s, and is now used all over the world, including hospitals and hospices to complement other forms of healing therapies.
Reiki has been clinically proven to reduce stress, aid in pain management, speed recovery from illness and surgery, and mentally support those coping with traumatic life changes and issues.
Reflexology is a non-invasive, complementary healing therapy, based on the principle that there are small and specific areas, called “reflex areas”, formed by 7,200 nerve endings on each hand and foot. These reflex areas correspond to particular organs, glands, and systems of the body.
Sometimes called “zone therapy”, this process involves applying gentle pressure to the reflex areas of the feet or hands, through the application of thumb or finger walking techniques, in order to reeducate, repattern and recondition the nerves. This specialized technique persuades the body to biologically correct, strengthen and reinforce itself, by promoting relaxation, improved circulation, and balance to the body.
The three main goals of reflexology are:
- Provide Relaxation
- Improve Nerve, Blood and Lymphatic Supply
- Persuade the Body to attain homeostasis, balance, and normalization
