Traditional Japanese Reiki & Women's Health and Wellness

Traditional Japanese Reiki is a peaceful, hands-on healing and energy balancing modality developed in Japan in the early 20th century. TJR is based on the teachings of the Vortex Reiki School in Japan and is an application of Usui-Do.

A Traditional Japanese Reiki session lasts approximately forty-five minutes to one hour and is done with the client fully clothed lying on a table in a relaxed environment. Because TJR is very gentle, many clients do not necessarily feel anything happening during the session, but do feel the full effects afterwards.

TJR is complementary to other modalities and not intended to replace medical treatment.

Studies conducted at Hartford Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut show that Reiki used during pregnancy reduced:

• anxiety by 94 percent
