........REIKI is a generic world-acknowledged term for defining The Universal Energy. It is a name included in various techniques (systems) which use this energy.
........The Reiki Systems access techniques of harnessing The Universal Energy. This energy can be channeled to anything in the universe: to one's self, to someone else, to any living being, to any inanimate object etc. - with positive effects. The healing properties of this energy are not medical acts; don't exclude nor do they interfere with any ongoing medical or psychological investigations, nor with any medical or psychological treatments.
........Here are several definitions that were given to this exceptional system through time:
- Spiritual healing technique (Mikao Usui).
- Reiki is a method. In Reiki there is no superstition, only hard facts. (Hawayo Takata)
- Wisdom and Truth (Hawayo Takata)
- Knowledge and Art (Hawayo Takata)
- I think there is only one Supreme Being- Absolute Infinity - a dynamic force that rules the world and the Universe. It is an invisible power that vibrates. Therefore it is absolute! We can name it Reiki! Being a Universal power given by the Great Immortal Spirit it belongs to all of us who are searching for it and want to learn the healing art (Hawayo Takata).

........Reiki practitioners channel energy in a particular pattern to heal and harmonize. Unlike other healing therapies based on the premise of a human energy field, Reiki seeks to restore order to the body whose vital energy has become unbalanced.
Reiki energy has several basic effects: it brings about deep relaxation, destroys energy blockages, detoxifies the system, provides new vitality in the form of healing universal life energy, and increases the vibrational frequency of the body.
