REIKI

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."

A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.

While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way that promotes harmony with others. Dr. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that one practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures.

During a meditation several years after developing Reiki, Dr. Usui decided to add the Reiki Ideals to the practice of Reiki. The Ideals came in part from the five prinicples of the Meiji emperor of Japan whom Dr. Usui admired. The Ideals were developed to add spiritual balance to Usui Reiki. Their purpose is to help people realize that healing the spirit by consciously deciding to improve oneself is a necessary part of the Reiki healing experience. In order for the Reiki healing energies to have lasting results, the client must accept responsibility for her or his healing and take an active part in it. Therefore, the Usui system of Reiki is more than the use of the Reiki energy. It must also include an active commitment to improve oneself in order for it to be a complete system. The ideals are both guidelines for living a gracious life and virtues worthy of practice for their inherent value.

The secret art of inviting happiness
The miraculous medicine of all diseases
Just for today, do not anger
Do not worry and be filled with gratitude
Devote yourself to your work. Be kind to people.
Every morning and evening, join your hands in prayer.
Pray these words to your heart
and chant these words with your mouth
Usui Reiki Treatment for the improvement of body and mind

REIKI TEACHING

Learning how to do Reiki will change your life for the better.  By doing Reiki on others be it man or beast, your health also improves.  Individual Reiki Teachings and Attunements are now available from Dr. Snell.  Recommended books are "Reiki Hands that Heal" by Joyce J Morris and "Essential Reiki, A Complete Guide to an Ancient Healing Art" by Diane Stein.

BODY UNWINDING

T. O'Neil, an ocupational therapist taught Dr. Snell this techique.  O'Neil does a lot of myofacial release moves and called this a crainial sacrial movement.  We are not sure what the proper name is, so we call it unwinding.  Dr. Snell holds on to a persons head, arm, or leg allows it to move in the way needed to release all of the tension, knots and stress in that area.  Often there will be self adjustment in the joints as well.  The person being unwound body determines what way it needs to move for release, but when it is happening to you it fells like the person holding the body part is moving it.  Reiki is also used during this process to remove energy blockages.  The flexablity is greatly improved, pain often gone, and stiffness greatly decreased or gone after a treatment.  After treatemt people are often light headed because of the increase energy flow up and down the spine.  By treating the legs lumbar back pain and stiffness is greatly improved.  Arm treatment can help with shoulder to carpal tunel pain.  We have helped several people with Whiplash much more than their conventional treatments did.

What is Ear Candling?
Ear Candling  is a non-invasive old time remedy to clean ears and remove excess ear wax.

What are the benefits of Ear Candling?

• removal of ear wax build-up and debris from the ear canal
• relief of pressure in cases of sinusitis, headaches, migraines, congestion, ear infection, "swimmer's ear".
• un-blockage of impacted cerumen (ear wax)
• reports of subtle changes in energy flow
• clients report improvements in hearing and breathing
• relief from vertigo or dizziness
• relief from tinnitus or head noises
• helps hearing aids function more efficiently by cleaning ear canal

                         DO… 

• •  Drink lots of water after the treatment.  The candling seems to start a cleansing process and the water will help the body to quickly flush it out.  This is a detoxification.

Repeat the process again if you still feel blocked. Sometimes large wax accumulations can require repeated treatments.

DON'T… 

Candle anyone with tubes in their ears.  This could cause the tubes to become blocked or the gentle suction could dislodge the tubes. Once the Doctor has done this no candling should be attempted until the tubes are out of the canal.  Wait until 6 months after the tubes are out of the canal before candling.  This gives time for the eardrum tissue to heal.

Candle anyone with a recent punctured eardrum.   People who have a punctured eardrum should still candle with care and not put oil or other liquid in ears.  Remember anything going in the affected ear goes directly into the inner ear. 

Candle ears that are draining.  Nature is already at work healing the ear.

Candle only one ear.  Always do both ears as there will be a definite imbalance created.

Candle someone who has had recent ear or sinus surgery.  Allow the body time to heal. Candling is gentle but still creates movement of debris and dryness in the ear.

IONIC FOOT BATH

According to all the ancient and modern literature, the Ionic Foot Bath Pulls dead Cellular material and Toxins from the body through the feet.  The Array sets up a negative Ionic field in the water.  Salt is used as the conductor. 

It is said that all the Meridians of the body flow through the feet and that Cleansing with an Ionic Foot Bath eventually Cleanses the body.

Hi Sandy – Here I am, back to upright and sitting at my computer in Columbus.  I can’t thank you enough for giving my body enough energy to fight off the invading beasties.  I honestly do not know what I would’ve done if Maha hadn’t come to get me that night.

I’ve been thinking since Thursday of all the fantastic stories you must have to tell – life as a holistic vet and Reiki Master in Sycamore Ohio has to be interesting and whacky and charming in

aIl of the ways that would make good reading.  Have you ever considered doing a book?  I would really like to explore the possibility of ghost writing a book for you.  Please think about it.

Anyway, thank you again.

Best to you and Ron,
