What To Know About Reiki Massage

By Beverly C. Ralph


In our modern day, many live stressful and fast-paced lives that do not give their bodies enough time to rest. There are many solutions for those interested in physical and mental relaxation. Reiki massage is believed to offer this type of rest and relaxation. The practice is considered a form of energy medicine and derives from Japan. Since its development in the 1920s, it has undergone many changes.

Japanese and western are the two branches of this system. There are some major differences between the two. Among the most prominent is in the hand position. Westernized versions use systematized hand placement, while Japanese practices use intuition to determine hand positions.

In both branches, there is a hierarchy of degrees known as first, second, and master or teacher. All of these are associated with differing techniques and skills. People interested in this practice are encouraged to do research on what all it entails. Furthermore, they should consider costs, ratings and reviews, and services offered by Reiki practitioners in their area.

If the body is able to release its stresses and worries, it can function to its full potential. This includes its ability to heal naturally from a range of medical problems. Treatments may offer balance in all respects. People in good health might can benefit from this practice by increasing their defenses against illnesses. Those with anxiety, pain and other problems can gain a lot of relief through Reiki.

Reiki is different than what most consider to be traditional massage. It works to open up various pathways in the body to allow for blood and energy flow. In some instances, a hands-off method may be utilized and particularly helpful for those suffering with pain following surgery or an injury. Because there are so many different forms of this, it is difficult to measure the level of effectiveness. Still, this might be a solution for those interested in non-invasive and more natural options for wellness.

The word for this system of massage comes from two Japanese words. One meaning wisdom of a higher power or God and the other word defined as life force energy. The treatment works on the whole body, including emotions, spirit, mind and physical being. It can encourage feelings of peace, security, well-being and relaxation.

Though this is considered spiritual in nature, it is not known as a religious practice. Still, it may allow a person to become more in tune with their spiritual self and religious beliefs. Mike Usui, founder of this system, has long advocated that people also promote peace and harmony in their day-to-day lives.
