Reiki is a healing practice developed in the early 20th century in Japan. Usui Reiki Ryoho is the traditional Japanese healing system named after its founder, Mikao Usui. Usui Sensei devised an energy based system of healing, self-care and personal development utilizing the concept of "ki". Concepts of Ki (Japan), Chi (China), or Prana (India) are the central features upon which all eastern medical, martial arts and healing practices are based. Ki is a universal and all encompassing energy which flows effortlessly and limitlessly. Reiki practitioners utilize the powerful flow of energy by placing their hands above, or on the patient's body to enhance natural healing, relaxation, relief of stress or pain.
