It is a traditional Japanese healing art and non-denominational spiritual practice—both a therapeutic method and a path to self-realization.

Zen

for modern life.

At New York City Reiki Academy in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, we offer Reiki as a form of meditation, energy healing, and inner cultivation—a modern expression of Zen for contemporary life.

“Not only to heal illness but also to amplify innate abilities, balance the spirit, make the body healthy, and thus help achieve happiness.”
Usui Memorial Inscription

How Reiki

Therapy Works

Reiki activates the body’s natural intelligence and restores energetic balance through gentle touch or remote connection.

  • Supports the nervous system and neuroplasticity

  • Promotes detoxification and cellular rejuvenation

  • Calms the mind and harmonizes the spirit

When the body lacks energy, elimination pathways become sluggish and toxins accumulate in the joints, organs, lymph, and head. Reiki energizes these pathways, awakening the natural processes of cleansing and renewal.

Inner pathways

of elimination:


• GI Tract
• Lymphatic System
• Liver & Kidneys
• Bladder
• Sweat Glands

As Hayashi-sensei described, Reiki works gently—like peeling away thin layers of paper—revealing harmony and vitality beneath.
