The bodymind knows how to heal itself — the system of Reiki supports that innate healing process.
One of the most fundamental concepts of Reiki is that the body draws on more energy to clear its stagnant energy. This is a non-diagnostic system that accepts that the body draws the energy to where it is most needed. This system began as a spiritual development practice at the beginning of the 1900s. Once a practitioner feels spiritually whole, the physical body follows.
