Energy Healing is an ancient art and comes in many forms. Specifically, the aura (the blueprint for the body, mind, and emotions) is worked on and balanced in order to bring about a healed state. This aura, or energy field, is very complex and is always changing. You may have heard of Chakras, energy vortices within the aura (see right photo), but the energy field also contains meridians (utilized in acupressure/reflexology), as well as many "layers" that hold the mental, emotional, and spiritual blueprints of your being. By working on the energy field, you can greatly affect physical/emotional/mental/spiritual well-being.

Reiki is a Japanese "Hands-On" healing technique that is being used successfully in the treatment of various illnesses and conditions, including but not limited to: depression, insomnia, cancer, aches, pains, and injuries.
