Introduction
How many times have you visited doctors, taken the medicines, followed every step yet still felt like nothing’s really changing? The symptoms stay, the mind stays restless, and a quiet exhaustion builds up inside you. You’re functioning, but not truly feeling.
What if Healing Didn’t Have to Be Hard?
That’s when many people discover Reiki as a gentle, powerful path that works not just on the body, but on the source beneath it all.
What Is Reiki?
Reiki is a clinically recognized profound yet non-invasive approach to restoring holistic well-being across physical, emotional, and mental dimensions.
Founded in 1922 by Dr. Mikao Usui, Reiki has been practiced for over 100 years worldwide. The word itself means “Universal Life Energy,” and the method is based on the idea that this energy must flow freely for us to experience complete physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
It is not a religion or spiritual belief system, but a therapeutic practice that works irrespective of personal faith or background.
How Does Reiki Work?
Reiki is based on the concept of a vital life force energy that flows through and around every living being. This energy often called “life force” or “chi/prana”—creates an invisible energy field that sustains physical, emotional, and mental health.
When this energy flows smoothly and without obstruction, we feel balanced and healthy. However, stress, illness, or trauma can create blockages or disruptions in this flow, leading to discomfort or disease.
For example, just as a river needs to flow freely to nourish the land, our body’s energy must move unimpeded to support healing. Reiki works by channeling universal energy through the practitioner’s hands to gently clear these blockages and restore the natural flow, promoting holistic well-being.
A Reiki session may be delivered either through hands-on techniques, where the practitioner gently places their hands on or just above specific areas of the body, or via distant healing, where the energy is transmitted remotely without physical contact. Both methods are equally effective and profound.
Sessions are conducted in a serene, controlled environment designed to promote relaxation and comfort. Typically lasting between 30 to 60 minutes, clients remain fully clothed and often lie down to facilitate deep physical and mental relaxation.
During treatment, clients frequently report sensations such as localized warmth, subtle tingling, or a profound sense of calm and relaxation. Emotional releases or shifts in mental clarity are also commonly observed, reflecting the holistic impact of the therapy.
“I feel very refreshed”, “I feel very relaxed”, “The pain is just gone”, “I feel very emotional”, “Your hands got very hot/ cold”, are some of our client testimonials.
If this sounds like you, Reiki could be the gentle healing you need.
Questions like “Is Reiki just a placebo?”, “Do I need to believe in it?”, or “Is it magic or woo?” are common and understandable.

Reiki supports the body’s natural healing intelligence rather than providing a quick fix. It encourages deeper self-awareness and emotional processing, helping you restore balance holistically and at your own pace. For example, someone experiencing chronic stress might not feel instant relief but, over several sessions, gradually develop greater calm and emotional clarity as their energy realigns.
Today, Reiki is used worldwide and is part of care in 800+ U.S. hospitals, including Johns Hopkins and the Cleveland Clinic. In India alone, over 1 million people now practice Reiki, and its popularity continues to grow.
