Newtonian physics has led to a worldview of the body as a sophisticated machine...a thing of levers and engines. This idea is beginning to be replaced by a new view of the body informed by Einsteinian and quantum physics that “The biochemical molecules that make up the physical body are actually a form of vibrating energy.”
Vibrational medicine views the body as a “complex, integrated life-energy system that provides a vehicle for human consciousness as well as a temporary housing for the creative expression of the human soul.”
Vibrational medicine theory views illness as caused not only by toxins, germs and trauma, but by chronic dysfunctional emotional-energy patterns.
For the past few decades complementary medical practice has been exploring different forms of energy to collectively heal the body, mind and spirit. Reiki is one form of holistic energy healing.
Touching to comfort and relieve pain, or the laying on of hands, is as old as instinct. When humans are hurt, they immediately put their hands on the spot. Reiki is therefore an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation, reduces stress and anxiety through gentle touch.
Reiki helps people become energetically balanced, physically, mentally and spiritually.
