Reiki practitioners use gentle hand movements to guide this life force energy through your body to improve its flow and restore balance. As with most healing modalities, there are many different type of Reiki.

Jikiden Reiki (offered by Ira) follows the teaching and methods as closely as possible to the original methods taught by Mikao Usui and Chujiro Hayashi. Jikiden means "directly passed down."

I have practiced Jikiden Reiki since 2009, and I became a teacher (Shihan) in 2013. I use Jikiden Reiki to tap into your body’s own healing potential and abilities, as well as to return you to a feeling of calmness and peace.
