Reiki as an Energy Medicine Therapy
The word Reiki is made up of two Japanese words: Rei, or universal
spirit (sometimes thought of as a supreme being), and ki.
Thus, the word Reiki means "universal life energy."
In CAM, Reiki belongs to a domain (area of knowledge) called energy
medicine. In this domain, therapies are based on the belief that
disturbances in energy cause illness. Energy medicine practitioners
seek to improve the flow and balance of energy in a beneficial way.
