Reiki: A Relaxation Technique Reiki (pronounced “ray-key”) in Japanese means “Universal Life Force Energy,” which is described as the energy flowing through all living things.
Reiki is a relaxation technique that supports the body’s natural ability to move toward balance and to experience a sense of well-being. It is a simple, gentle and safe “hands-on” technique that promotes stress reduction for those who receive it. Reiki sessions at BIDMC commonly last 15 to 20 minutes.
Reiki provides patients with a few quiet minutes away from the hospital routine to refocus and relax.
