A complementary therapy based on an ancient healing system rediscovered in the 20th century by a Buddhist monk. It involves a therapist putting his or her hands on or very close to a patient to boost the patient’s natural invisible energy fields (reiki means ‘universal life force’). It is often used as an adjunct to other therapies and is said to be helpful for many conditions.
