Usui Reiki Healing
Pure traditional light energy for deep, gentle healing
What it is
Usui Reiki is a pure and original Japanese method of spiritual energy healing developed by Mikao Usui in Japan in the 1920s.
How it works
Reiki is a complementary practice in which the practitioner places their hands lightly on, or just above, the recipient’s body. Within Reiki traditions, this is understood as directing or channelling the universal life‑force energy to support the body’s natural healing response which helps balance the body, mind and spirit; reducing stress and promoting relaxation.
Origins and lineage
The system likely drew on Japanese Buddhist and related spiritual traditions; some language, concepts and symbols associated with Reiki reflect broader Asian religious and healing influences, including Sanskrit and Buddhist elements. Mikao Usui himself used the terms reihō and reikiryōhō (literally ‘spiritual method’). The practice became known as ‘Reiki’ when it was introduced to the West.

What to expect
Client lies on a treatment table, fully clothed and covered with a blanket, if required.
For in-person sessions: the practitioner may be required to place hands lightly on non-intimate areas. There will never be any physical contact with any intimate/erogenous zones. For the areas where chakras or meridians run through intimated/erogenous zones, hands will always be placed a few inches above with no physical contact. Your consent will be required before any physical touch. In general, receiving sessions remotely are preferred for most of healing modalities I offer. Your safety, consent, boundaries and comfort will always be honoured and respected as my highest priority. At Illuminated Heart, spiritual energy healing always comes from the heart and with respect.
