Lerner Health Promotion Program Reiki
At the Lerner Health Promotion Program, we are committed to enhancing the wellbeing of our community through evidence-based, holistic approaches to health. As part of our comprehensive offerings, we proudly include Reiki, a gentle, non-invasive healing technique that promotes profound relaxation, enhances wellbeing, and supports the body’s natural ability to heal.
Our certified Reiki practitioners offer this complementary therapy to patients, caregivers, and staff, aiming to achieve the following goals:
- facilitate the flow of energy through the body
- support the body's natural healing processes
- alleviate pain and reduce muscle tension
- improve sleep quality and overall wellbeing
- enhance relaxation and reduce stress
During a Reiki session, a practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above the body in a series of carefully structured positions. The practice is safe, non-intrusive, and can be performed alongside conventional medical treatments, offering holistic support to those in need of healing and relaxation.
Benefits for Our Community
Reiki has shown potential benefits in various healthcare settings. It may help patients manage pain, anxiety, and treatment side effects. It also offers a way for caregivers to support and connect with patients. Staff may find it provides stress relief and promotes self-care.
