All life forms and energies are nourished and nurtured by the subtle life force energy known as chi or ki. This subtle energy becomes imbalanced and diminished due to stress, toxins, and wear in our daily lives. Energy healing modes, such as Reiki, assist us in rebalancing and strengthening our life force energy directly from life itself.
Our lead practitioner and Reiki Teacher, Bruce Davis, has been practicing Reiki and training other practitioners (including massage therapists, physicians and nurses) since 1994. Bruce has trained with internationally known Canadian Reiki teacher, Dave King, in the art and practice of Traditional Japanese Reiki (TJR.) Due to this training, Bruce is able to bring back the original practice and principles of this powerful technique. Upon completion of the training and attunements with Bruce, our students have a very close lineage to Mikeo Usui, the founder of Reiki (5 steps removed along the Japanese line). Bruce is the only practicing Reiki teacher in the Cincinnati, Ohio area who is an authorized Traditional Japanese Reiki Teacher.
