Reiki healing is a popular form of alternative medicine these days. It's current form comes from Japan, but many believe its origins trace from there back to India.
Reiki is useful for both healing the spirit and the body, and works well with other healing methods. Reiki won't bring harm, so it's an excellent option to speed healing.
Reiki healing is a spiritual practice. That's a bit vague so let me explain. It is healing done by one spirit for another (or for itself). As with any other form of energy healing, it seeks to balance the energy system first, and thus helps take care of the body.
The upshot is that Reiki in particular and energy healing generally are very good at smoothing the emotional wounds of the past.
As we go through life, the bumps and bruises we get take their toll. As time goes on, they can weigh you down and make wreck your emotional balance and physical wellbeing. Reiki can bring a gentle rain to the parched landscape of painful experiences.
As for healing the body, the effects are subtle and can be profound. The very least that Reiki will do is to relax the body. This alone can do so much. In modern society, we are constantly winding ourselves up: Time pressures are never-ending, we're constantly loading stimulants into our bodies, and the fight-or-flight reaction is almost always on. Releasing that and letting the body reset is very restorative.
Beyond that, here are a few direct experiences I've had with Reiki. Burns have disappeared. Motion sickness has evaporated. Chronic pain has been kept at bay, and reduced over time. Surgery has healed up in a fraction of the time and with minimal painkillers.
As useful as Reiki healing is, it's best used in combination with other healing methods. Of all the Reiki practitioners I'm aware, only one or two use Reiki as a stand-alone. All of them would urge you to see a doctor if you've got the flu or an injury. Reiki in conjunction with modern medicine is a powerful combination.
If you're concerned at all about the possibility of being harmed with Reiki, then relax. Won't happen. Reiki will not allow itself to harm anyone. I might have deserved it during a "sorcerer's apprentice" moment of mine (I go into it on my site), but even then I was gently taught a lesson in respect, but still unharmed. Reiki can't harm, period.
This is a broad topic, and this article just scratches the surface. From how you can heal over distance and time, to symbols passed from teacher to student, there are lots of aspects of this method to explore.
If you're looking for a healing method to support other methods, yet is strong and gentle in its own right, I would say that Reiki is definitely worth a look. - 16650
