Understand what Reiki truly means, how it works, and why it restores balance for people all over the world.
Discover nowReiki is an ancient yet timeless form of healing – simple, profound, effective. It originates in Japan and literally means "universal life energy". This energy – also known as chi, prana, or life force – permeates every living being. When it flows freely we feel alive, healthy, and clear. When it is blocked we experience restlessness, exhaustion, or illness.
Reiki allows this natural energy flow to be restored – through gentle hand placements, quiet presence, and a conscious turning toward being. It works not only on the physical plane but also on emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. Reiki can relax, ease pain, dissolve blockages, balance emotions, and accompany deep inner processes.
The special aspect: everyone can learn Reiki. After an introductory seminar – the so-called attunement – you can intentionally channel Reiki: for yourself, for other people, for animals, plants, or even places. Your hands become a channel for something greater that does not originate from you – but is allowed to flow through you.
Reiki is not a therapy in the traditional sense but a holistic method for harmonising life energy. It does not replace medical or psychotherapeutic treatment – yet it can complement it in a powerful way.
Many people describe a sense of spaciousness, safety, goosebumps, or lightness after a session – as if something within them is finally able to breathe again.
Reiki is free of dogma. It does not demand belief. It is simply present – when you invite it.
What was labelled "esoteric" just a few decades ago is steadily finding its way into clinics and counselling practices. In countries such as the USA or the UK, Reiki is present in many hospices, pain clinics, and maternity wards – as a complementary measure for relaxation and energetic support.
Acceptance is growing in Switzerland and Germany as well: statutory health insurers are starting to review reimbursements, adult education centres offer Reiki courses, and more and more physicians, alternative practitioners, and therapists collaborate with Reiki practitioners across disciplines.
Reiki is on its way to becoming a folk healing art of the 21st century – open, effective, close to life.
Every person carries the capacity to heal within. Reiki is a path to rediscover that power. You do not need prior knowledge or special abilities – only the wish to accompany yourself and others with kindness.
A Reiki seminar is often the beginning of a profound journey – toward yourself, your body, and your inner truth. Many experience Reiki not merely as a method but as an attitude: a reconnection with stillness, compassion, and the inner light of humanity.
You can weave Reiki into daily life, integrate it into your profession, use it as self-care, or live it as a spiritual practice. Reiki is there when you are ready.
