What does Reiki Mean?

Reiki is a therapy that helps to maintain the universal energy. Reiki, the energy healing system, is based on the faith that feelings and thoughts have the power to guide energy, the same energy which shapes the world. As for the definition of Reiki, it can be stated that it's a kind of spiritual practice that brings about healing on all levels - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.

Today, Reiki is practiced as a complementary therapy to cure diseases in all parts of the world. In this system, the Reiki Practitioner uses a hands-on technique, where the energy flows through palms and causes healing. It can be used to give self-treatments as well as to give treatment to others. Plants, crops and animals, on top of relationships, can also be treated with the help of Reiki. The etymology of Reiki states that it comprises two words, 'Rei' and 'Ki', where 'Rei' stands for 'the Higher Power', while the 'life force energy' is denoted by 'Ki'.
