Have you heard about the Asian art of Reiki and its healing abilities?Right now, there is the eastern and the western type of Reiki. They share the same principle of self-healing and enhanced circulation.

Realizing that there are two types of Reiki will help you to make a decision as to the best one for you. Main difference between two Reikis is on what they highlight on the procedures to cure the illness; energy transfer is for the eastern while pressure points is of western.

Here are the important things you should know about each type of Reiki to  get their effective healing.

Tranferring the healing energy to the patient  through pressure points is part of the Easter Reiki.  As for this method, the abdomen should get most attention thru ought the healing.

Not only the physical illness is being healed in this traditional Reiki way but it aims to touch the whole being including the psyche and mental parts of the person. It is vital that the healer itself is a believer of the practice so he can transfer that good energy to his patient.  This mode of Reiki upholds the idea that the palms channels out healing power from one person to another like the ancient Japanese belief.

Unlike the traditional laying of palms over the body, western Reiki has lots of massage and pressure applications. Pressure points are necessary to keep the circulation of the body free flowing do self-healing would be enhanced. Applying pressure in the right areas can release toxins built up in the body and can also relax muscles, which in turn allows the body to heal.

Typically the western or newer types of Reiki don’t involve crystals but do involve the healer’s ability to transfer energy which in turn heals. They believe that massage and pressure can heal with the energy flowing through the palm of the hands.

A holistic approach to healing is also part of any of these types of Reiki; many believe that the body cannot heal itself or is hindered with healing when a person’s mental or emotional state is compromised. Stress can result to hormonal imbalance which can prevent self-healing of the body.

Healing by the methods of Reiki is not confined in a therapy session, they get the person to be well-verse on stress handling, open mindedness, and keeping the positivity that they can bring to all corners of their life.
