This energy is often called Chi, Prana, or soul. There are many disciplines have been developed to help develop and balance our energy centers (chakras). Aside from Reiki healing, other modalities such as qigong, tai chi, meditation, yoga, and feng shui are just a few of the many ways to enhance the flow of this life force energy.

The practitioner conducts universal energy from their arms, and out through his or her hands where it flows into the client’s body. During a distance Reiki session, the practitioner channels the healing energy to the receiver in a different location. Universal energy is not limited by time or space. Thus, the results of a distance Reiki session and in-person session are the same.
In a Reiki session, the practitioner does not rely on his or her personal energy. Rather, practitioners are conduits for channeling the energy. In an in-person and distance Reiki session, the energy drawn in by the recipient through the practitioner. The energy will go where it is needed in the order that the recipient’s body and mind determines.
