A Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the life force energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, the Reiki Practitioner uses a gentle laying-of-hands technique to conduct the necessary energy. The benefits range from the release of habitual mental or emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.
Reflexology : Reflexology is a therapeutic method of relieving pain by stimulating predefined pressure points on the feet and hands. This controlled pressure alleviates the source of the discomfort. In the absence of any particular malady or abnormality, reflexology may be as effective for promoting good health and for preventing illness as it may be for relieving symptoms of stress, injury, and illness.
