Reiki can support the healing of illness

A core principle of Reiki is that our bodies draw on additional energy to clear stagnant energy. While we cannot precisely explain why this occurs, the Reiki system does not require us to do so. It is not a diagnostic system—what matters is that our bodies will absorb the energy and direct it to where it is needed. If the rational mind interferes by diagnosing, we limit the healing potential of spiritual energy.

​It supports the body's natural healing process

Our mind and body inherently know how to heal themselves, and the Reiki system enhances this natural process. By working with Reiki, we can accelerate the body’s ability to heal. This is one of the reasons it was introduced in Japan in the late 1920s as first aid for the military, who, despite rapid technological advancements, had a healthcare system that was still outdated.

Working with Reiki is about creating balance in our lives

A Reiki practitioner simply allows each client to follow their own healing path. Healing can manifest in many ways, ranging from miraculous recovery to a peaceful passing. The philosophy behind Reiki teaches that death is part of the human journey, and Reiki can support us not only in life but also in the process of dying. Within the Reiki community, it is widely believed that, regardless of your physical condition—whether in good health or living with illness—Reiki can help restore balance. This promotes a sense of peace and acceptance, no matter the state of your health.

Reiki is non-intrusive, non-manipulative and does not diagnose

Reiki is a safe practice that, while it does not diagnose, manipulate, or provide products to clients, is regarded as equally effective as many other respected therapies today. It relies on the body’s innate wisdom to determine what it needs, setting it apart from more controlling and often disempowering approaches in other invasive healthcare practices. The system is grounded in profound wisdom, teaching practitioners to set aside their limited rationality, trust their common sense, and allow the natural flow of healing energy to unfold.
