REIKI

Rei-ki (Ray-kee) two Japanese words, together meaning Universal Life Energy.

Comes from an ancient healing technique to help balance the subtle physical, mental, emotional and spiritual energies within each and every one of us. While ancient in origin, the modern day presentation was formulated by Dr Mikao Usui in the 1920's and arrived in the West in the early '50's.

It is a simple, safe and natural form of healing and self-improvement, with a focus on relaxation, feelings of security, well being and peace ... and is now consistently used alongside all medical and therapeutic modalaties.

Rei-ki is not a religion or dogma and there is nothing to "believe in" to experience the benefits. For one hour, the recipient is invited to lie down on our stunningly comfortable bed, fully clothed (minus shoes), in a quiet, warm room with a beautiful outlook and often with some gentle meditative music playing. The practiconer places her/his hands lightly on different parts of the body, in a sequence, to facilitate the sublimely healing energy.

Scientific research over the last forty years shows that the benefits of deep relaxation, especially in the face of enormous health challenges, is unarguable. Reiki is one such modality and available to you here at dove house.
