Established in 2011, SF REIKI CENTER is a traditional private practice and school of Reiki.

Reiki is an ancient healing art which channels energy through the palms of the hands. This vital spiritual energy activates the natural healing processes, detoxifies the body of both physical and emotional blockages, and nurtures a state of deep relaxation and calmness. Reiki treats all the vital organs, the head, the torso, the back, and the feet.

In this 4-hour class, designed for beginners, you will learn to develop your natural intuitive abilities to help you sense a person's aura and scan their seven main chakras with your hands. You will learn to determine how the strength or weakness you feel in each chakra relates to the health and emotions of the person you are scanning.

In this 3-hour class, Reiki students will learn the Opening & Closing Spiral technique developed by Dr. W. Brugh Joy and adapted Reiki Master, John Harvey Gray. Using the Opening Spiral at the start of every Reiki treatment and the Closing Spiral at the end of each treatment will help a client to absorb more Reiki during the session and hold onto that energy for several days.
