Reiki is a form of alternative medicine developed in 1922 by Japanese Buddhist Mikao Usui. Since originating in Japan, Reiki has been adapted into varying cultural traditions across the world. Reiki practitioners use a technique called palm healing or hands-on healing through which a “universal energy” is allegedly transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the patient in order to encourage emotional or physical healing.

Aromatherapy with Essential Oils
Aromatherapy is a natural way to de-stress, unwind, relax, energize, balance and revitalize body, mind and spirit. Pure essential oils are the essence of nature that are extracted from flowers, leaves, bark and berries. It is through the sense of smell that the plant’s fragrant essence can impact emotions, memories, and suit every mood. Try adding just a few drops in the tub for a relaxing bath or in a bowl of hot water to scent a room.
