Reiki is an art of natural hands-on-healing.  Reiki, as we know it today, was re-discovered by Dr Mikao Usui of Japan,(1865-1926). From Japan, it spread to the rest of the world and expanded with an increasing degree of popularity.  With its compassionate, loving, very gentle and non-invasive approach, Reiki Healing is a wonderful healing method for easing the suffering of life. Reiki healing works very well in co-operation with traditional medical and psychological treatments and will not interfere with these in any negative or contrary way.  Rather Reiki can enhance the effect of traditional methods because of its holistic approace.
