Reiki is a holistic treatment. This means that it can be used to treat ailments in the entire body as well as in the mind and in the spirit. While all of these things are possible with reiki, the most common use of the treatment is as a way of healing the body.
Whole body treatment with reiki basically involves the patient lying down and the practitioner laying his or her hands on or over the patient’s body. Some reiki practitioners can feel where the energy is needed more than others. In localized reiki treatment, one specific part of the body is treated; this is often used on those who have been in accidents or who have one specific complaint.

A patient can also receive group treatment, which involves two reiki practitioners performing reiki on one patient. It is thought that this can bring about a better effect.
