Reiki

Reiki is a technique created in Japan that consists of the laying on of hands to transfer energy. In this way it is possible to align the body's energy centres, known as chakras, promoting the energy balance needed to maintain physical and mental well-being.

Main benefits

Reiki involves the transfer of vital energy that brings the body into balance, generating a sense of well-being, improving mood and promoting physical health. In this type of therapy we use meditation techniques and breathing exercises, leading to certain benefits such as:

1. Reduces symptoms of stress and anxiety
This type of therapy can be an excellent ally for treating anxiety, due to the feeling of relaxation and well-being it provides. Consequently, through Reiki it is also possible to reduce the symptoms of stress that cause anxiety, promoting a feeling of inner peace and serving as a calming agent, as it uses breathing and meditation techniques.
Some Reiki clinics and therapists can teach the person themselves how to use the principles of Reiki in their day-to-day life, so that it is possible to apply the technique at times of greater stress and anxiety.

2. Helps treat depression
Reiki can be used to help treat depression, because by applying the techniques of laying on of hands it is possible to align the body's vital energy and reduce the symptoms caused by this illness, such as excessive sadness, physical tiredness and loss of energy and interest in activities that previously generated pleasure.

3. Reduces chronic pain
The relaxation produced during Reiki practice helps to reduce chronic pain, such as back pain and headaches, as it is able to reduce muscle tension and fatigue, for example.

4. Relieves the symptoms of insomnia
The feeling of well-being caused by Reiki is capable of increasing the release of hormones such as serotonin and endorphins, which are excellent allies for warding off insomnia. What's more, Reiki causes relaxation, which also leads to a better night's sleep.

5. Improves quality of life
Through the techniques applied in Reiki, you can improve your quality of life, as it is a type of therapy that releases emotional tensions, cleansing the mind and promoting inner relaxation. Reiki generates feelings of hope, well-being, joy, peace and self-confidence in the person and this makes it possible to carry out daily tasks more easily and with more energy.

Benefits of Reiki in pregnancy

The relaxation and calm provided by Reiki can be very useful during pregnancy, as it can reduce the insecurity and stress that are common during this period, and provide a more peaceful labour.
What's more, controlling stress reduces the production of negative hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline, which can cause a rise in blood pressure, pre-eclampsia and increase the risk of premature labour.
