The name “Reiki”, pronounced “RAY-kee” is a combination of two Japanese words: “rei” and “ki”. Loosely translated, it means Universal Life Energy. The Japanese word “ki” is comparable to the Chinese word “qi”, pronounced “chee”. The balancing of qi is the basis of qigong and acupuncture, among other practices in Chinese medicine. Reiki balances the recipient’s energy in much the same way.
