Our Reiki Lineage
Our Reiki Lineage dates directly back to Mikao, Usui, the founder of Usui Shiki Ryoho, or Usui's Method of Natural Healing. Usui founded the term "Reiki" as a word that means Universal Energy. Usui's Method of Natural Healing is the practice that today we simply refer to as Reiki.
Usui taught Chujiro Hayashi, who taught Hawayo Takata, the woman who brought Reiki out of Japan to the USA. Before Ms. Takata died, she taught 22 Reiki Masters who helped to spread Reiki all over the world.
