In 1915, Dr. Mikao Usui of Japan was attending a twenty one day training at a Buddhist Temple near Mt. Kurama. During this training it is said that the "great Reiki energy entered his crown charka" which greatly enhanced his healing abilities. After working with this method on the poor of Kyoto for seven years, he moved to Tokyo in 1922 and started a healing society where offered Reiki sessions and taught this method to others.

Reiki incorporates the use of symbols which are drawn with the hands and also verbally invoked. Reiki can be performed on the body or from a distance (sometimes called "absentee" or "distance healing.") It can be used on physical complaints and also for situations.

There are three levels of training and then another level of training to become a teacher. The 'energy' of Reiki is transmitted to the student by a teacher in what should be an unbroken lineage from Dr. Usui. To learn more about Reiki, explore the following link: www.reiki.org
