hello everyone today im going to talk about a type of alternative therapy called

reiki. Reiki is a form of complementary


therapy relating to energy healing. proponents say that it works with the energy
fields around the body and involves
the transfer of universal energy from the practitioner's palms to the client. reiki
originated from japan, and the
word reiki means mysterious atmosphere, miraculous sign. it comes from the japanese
word rei meaning universal
and ki meaning energy. reiki is a type of energy healing. according to
practitioners, energy can stagnate in the body
where there has been physical injury or even emotional pain. in time, these energy
blocks can cause illness.
energy medicine aims to help the flow of energy and remove blocks in a similar way
to acupuncture. reiki practitioners believe
that improving the flow of energy around the body can enable relaxation, relieve
pain, speed healing and reduce other
symptoms of illness. a reiki session should take place in a peaceful, private
setting, while the client will sit in
a comfortable chair or lie on a table, fully clothed. the practitioner will then
place their hands lightly on or over
specific areas of the client's head, limbs, and torso. they will typically keep
their hands in these position for 3-10 minutes
sessions can last 45-90 minutes, the number of sessions may vary, depending on what
a client wishes to accomplish. some clients
prefer to have one session, while others have a series of sessions to work on a
particular issue. according to practitioners,
reiki channels universal energy known as ki. this energy supposedly permeates the
body. reiki experts point out that
athough this energy is not measurable with modern scientific techniques, many who
tune into it can feel it.
reiki allegedly aids relaxation, assists in the body's natural healing processes,
and develops emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. however, no studies have
conclusively shown this
to be true. some anecdotal evidence suggests that it may induce deep relaxation,
help people cope with difficulties, relieve emotional stress, and
improve overall well-being. overall, reiki is a pretty effective form of energy
therapy that you should definitely try
out. this is the end of my speech, thank you for listening
