Hong Kong's Peninsula Spa by ESPA has announced the launch of new healing therapies by Reiki, which translates as 'universal life force energy' and aims to enhance wellbeing.
Reiki was initially devised by Japanese Buddhist Mikao Usui in the early 1900s in a bid to "activate" the body's natural healing processes and restore physical/emotional wellbeing.
Three elements comprise the practice, including Gasho meditation; Reiji-ho summoning of energy; and Chiryo - Reiki treatments applied by hand.
All therapists at the Peninsula Spa by ESPA have been trained in First Degree Reiki, which enables them to provide healing to themselves and to others.
Some therapists have also received Second Degree Reiki training, which involves the use of symbols to harness positive energy and heal on a remote basis.
