What is Reiki?

Reiki is a type of alternative therapy that involves a practitioner using their hands to transmit healing energy to a person in order to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and support the body's natural ability to heal itself.

Imagine it like a comforting and gentle "energy massage" without physical touch. During a Reiki session, the practitioner's hands are placed lightly on or near the recipient's body, and they channel a soothing and calming energy that is believed to help balance the recipient's physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

While the exact mechanism of how Reiki works is not fully understood, many people find it to be a deeply relaxing and calming experience, which can help alleviate stress and contribute to an overall sense of well-being. It's often used as a complementary therapy alongside conventional medical treatments to support the healing process.

What is Touch for Health ?

Touch for Health (TFH) is a holistic system of health and wellness that integrates principles from Eastern and Western medicine, focusing on the body's energy systems and their connection to physical health and emotional well-being. Developed by Dr. John Thie in the 1970s, Touch for Health is based on the concept of balancing the body's energy to promote optimal health and vitality.

Here's a brief overview of Touch for Health:

  1. Muscle Monitoring: Touch for Health practitioners use muscle testing, also known as muscle monitoring, to assess the body's energy flow and identify imbalances. By applying gentle pressure to specific muscles, practitioners can determine areas of weakness or energy blockages.

  2. Energy Meridians: Touch for Health is rooted in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which emphasizes the flow of energy, or qi, along meridian pathways in the body. Practitioners focus on balancing the energy flow along these meridians to promote health and well-being.

  3. Muscle Balancing: Once imbalances are identified through muscle monitoring, Touch for Health practitioners use various techniques to restore balance and harmony to the body's energy system. These techniques may include energy balancing, and gentle exercises.

  4. Goal Setting: Touch for Health sessions often involve setting goals for improved health and vitality. Practitioners work with clients to identify specific areas of concern and establish achievable objectives for their well-being.

  5. Self-Care Techniques: One of the core principles of Touch for Health is empowering individuals to take an active role in their health and wellness. Practitioners teach clients simple self-care techniques, such as acupressure points and energy exercises, that they can use at home to support their healing process.
