Dr. J’s Tranquility Reiki Spa.  What is Reiki?  It can help you alleviate stress and anxiety, lowers blood pressure, eases pain and helps promote overall  mind-body- spirit.

Show Notes:  My guest today is Jonathan Hochberg.  He is a Reiki Master for sixteen years.

What is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced Ray-Kee) is a complementary therapy for all kinds of illnesses (both physical and emotional) including:  cancer, pain, chronic illnesses, anxiety, depression and is especially helpful in expediting recovery for all pre-and post-operations for medical procedures.  Essentially, the Reiki energy goes to help the innate wisdom of the body to heal.  The energy heals at a cellular level and atomic level.  It changes things by breaking up stagnant energy, adding positive energy and creating space for healing to take place.

Where did Reiki come from?

Dr.  Usui “discovered" Reiki energy and put a name to it in Japan in 1904.  Discovered is in parenthesis because it is believed the healing practice has been around as long as 5,000 years.  We can thank Dr. Usui for creating a specific modality and allowing people to pass down the ability to provide Reiki treatments from one-on-one training from one Reiki Master to another.

How is a Reiki treatment performed?

 It is totally non-invasive.  Reiki therapy involves the laying of hands on the fully-clothed patient by the Reiki practitioner.  His/her hands travel through 12 to 15 different positions, staying in each place for about 5 minutes for a total of about an hour per treatment.

Are medical professionals on board with Reiki therapy?

With continuous positive reactions from many patients, prestigious cancer centers like the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Texas and the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota offer Reiki classes and treatments for patients on a regular basis as well as in-service classes for their nurses and staff.

How do I book a treatment?

I tried Reiki for the first time three weeks ago.  Never have I been put into such a meditative state.  I describe my experience in this podcast.  I’m now a regular.  I see and feel results.
