We continue to research and learn about Reiki Ryoho and this site will reflect updated information periodically.

What is Reiki Ryoho?: The word, Reiki is Japanese, formed from two kanji terms; REI, which means spiritual or sacred and KI, which means energy. This is the word that has evolved as a description of the energy-balancing technique credited to Mikao Usui. “Reiki” actually represents in Japanese, the spiritual, sacred (also referred to as "universal") energy that is the essence of all existence. Ryoho means healing method, therapy or remedy. These words together, Reiki Ryoho, are used to describe a system of wellness and enlightenment, generated through universal spiritual energy. The Usui method to achieving personal development was the foundation of different branches of practice started by some of his students; Usui Do (way of Usui) and Usui Teate (Usui hand touch). Usui Do is still a version of the traditional methods of Usui, as interpreted by a branch of his early students. Eventually the tradition of Reiki discussed here became known as Usui Reiki Ryoho (Usui Spirtual Energy Method). This system of Reiki is founded on principles and methods involving breathing and meditational exercises for personal development. While many recognize Reiki as a "hands on" method of energy work for stress release and well-being, the emphasis of this system, and greatest benefit is consistent practice of breathing and meditational exercises to effect natural flow of energy for balance and growth. Reiki Ryoho includes traditional Japanese fundamentals and principles of the Reiki system, as originally practiced and taught by Mikao Usui.

Benefits of Reiki Ryoho: Reiki Ryoho benefits individuals by engaging the natural flow of energy to relieve stagnant energy and blockages. Reiki flows to the root cause and eliminates the effects of imbalance, as the energy flows to the greatest need. It does not conflict with religious beliefs, and is a complimentary, natural helping method that does not interfere with medical treatments. Reiki Ryoho minimizes feelings of helplessness and releases accumulated daily stress. The practice of Reiki Ryoho promotes personal growth within individuals through balance to mind and body. Reiki Ryoho Individual "Hands On" Sessions: Hands on Reiki sessions represent a non-manipulative, non-invasive form of energy work. The result is a re-alignment of energy flow within an individual by releasing stagnant energy and relieving energy blocks for balance. An individual lies, comfortably on a massage table, fully clothed for a full session. The practitioner places hands on or slightly above the individual's body in a series of hand positions along energy centers, as energy re-aligns as needed. The most informative way of understanding "hands on" is to actually experience Reiki Ryoho flow through a session. Full Reiki session fee is $50 for 60 to 75 minute session. 30 Minute Reiki session fee is $25 Sliding scale fees and senior fees (+62) available. Please inquire. Distance Reiki session fee is $15 for 20 minutes. Email to schedule either in person or distance session.

Reiki Ryoho Training (foundational Japanese principles and techniques): Three levels or degrees of instruction exist in the traditional Reiki Ryoho technique. The first is Shoden, beginning teachings, which opens the Reiki channel for an individual; learn personal techniques and hands on practice. The second is Okuden, inner teachings, which involves a level of practice for individuals to develop deeper understanding of energy and personal development; learn three sacred symbols and corresponding kotodama (mantras). The third level is Shinpiden, secret teachings, which introduces a fourth sacred symbol and enables an individual to connect with a higher level of consciousness through personal development methods. In Reiki Ryoho training, individuals learn basic principles, history, breathing and meditation methods and hands on practice to enable them to use Reiki for themselves and others. Students receive attunements in Shoden and Okuden training. The foundational philosophy of the system of Reiki is taught from Japanese perspective. Reiki Ryoho classes are scheduled over two days, six hours each day to allow adequate time for feedback and practice in the presence of the Reiki teacher. Gendai Ki Reiki Ho (Modern Energy Reiki Method): Gendai Ki Reiki Ho is a blend of Japanese and Western Reiki techniques. Our Gendai Ki class duration is about eight hours, including history, breathing and meditation techniques, hands on practice for self and others.
