Medical Reiki

Medical Reiki brings the proven benefits of Reiki into clinical settings including hospitals, operating rooms, cancer centers, hospices, and assisted living communities.

During a session, the practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above the body. The touch is gentle, non-invasive, and never interferes with medical equipment, treatments, or medications.

How Reiki Helps

Reiki activates the parasympathetic nervous system, initiating the relaxation response and encouraging the body’s natural healing processes. It creates balance in body, mind, and spirit while relieving tension and anxiety.
