How to Attend Reiki School
Reiki, a type of Japanese holistic healing, is a treatment involving laying hands above the patient in specific Reiki hand positions. The hands are purported to channel energy from practitioner to patient to promote positive energy, to break down energy blocks and to encourage the body to heal itself. Reiki has been used to help in the treat of depression, negative effects of menopause and spiritual ailments.

Tips & Warnings
Reiki is an alternative treatment to Western medicine, and though it can be used in conjunction with it is not a replacement for the care of a certified physician. If you feel chest pain or severe anxiety, visit an emergency room or your doctor as soon as possible.
Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one that is licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
