About Reiki
The word “Reiki” comes from two Japanese characters: “rei,” which means “spiritual” or “sacred,” and “ki,” which means “energy.” In the West, Reiki is viewed as a holistic system of healing which channels the unseen forces that give us life and naturally flow through us. The higher this energy is, the more joy and health we experience; the lower it is, the more likely we are to encounter illness and stress.
SWIHA offers three different and yet equally significant approaches to learning this modality:
Certificate of Excellence in Traditional Reiki
As a student receiving this form of Reiki training, you will be taught using techniques which have been handed down to practitioners for generations. The history of Reiki, the specific healing steps it involves, and the separation of Reiki I and II by at least 21 days will be observed. Traditional Reiki appeals to those who prefer a linear, logical, time-tested approach.

Certificate of Excellence in Transformational Reiki
As the consciousness of our planet has evolved, so, too, has the way Reiki can be taught! As a student receiving this form of Reiki training, you will be focused on awakening your inner practitioner to your innate healing abilities. This approach incorporates sounding, chanting, accelerated revelation of the sacred symbols, and other elements of Native American and World Ceremonies. Transformational Reiki appeals to those who prefer a non-traditional, organic, shamanistic approach to healing.
