This distance healing is an advance technique method only able to be used by the very experience and highest level Reiki masters.

Firstly, let understand the term REI-KI

REI as it is used in Reiki has been interpreted to mean supernatural knowledge or spiritual consciousness. This is the wisdom that comes from God or the Higher Self. This is the God-Consciousness which is all knowing. It understands each person completely. It knows the cause of all problems and difficulties and knows what to do to heal them.

KI is interpreted as the Vital Life Force/Universal Life force To the Chinese, Ki is actually Chi, Ki is Prana in Sanskrit and Mana in Hawaiian. It has also been called, odicforce, orgone, and bioplasma.
Ki is the non-physical energy that animates all living things. As long as something is alive, it has life force circulating through it and surrounding it, when it dies, the life force departs. If your life force is low, or if there is a restriction in its flow, you will be more vulnerable to illness. When it is high, and flowing freely, you are less likely to get sick. Life force plays an important role in everything we do. It animates the body and also is the primary energy of our emotions, thoughts and spiritual life. Ki is present all around us and can be accumulated and guided by the mind. Ki is used by martial artists in their physical training and mental development . It is used in meditative breathing exercises called Pranayama, and by the shamans of all cultures for divination, psychic awareness, manifestation and healing. Ki is the non physical energy used by all healers.
