Circulation & Relaxation
Reiki is a form of energy-based therapy that originated in Japan. It focuses on promoting the flow of the body’s natural life force energy to support relaxation and healing. During a session, your therapist may place their hands lightly on or just above specific areas of the body to encourage balance and ease.
Unlike traditional massage, Reiki does not involve deep muscle manipulation. Instead, it complements therapeutic care by addressing energetic imbalances that may contribute to stress or discomfort.

For more than two decades, Therapeutic Kneads has combined proven massage techniques with complementary therapies to help clients feel and function their best. Reiki fits seamlessly into our holistic, therapeutic framework.
Our licensed massage therapists are specially trained in energy work and tailor each session to your individual needs, whether that’s reducing stress, supporting recovery, or finding emotional clarity.

A Tradition of Healing
Reiki was developed in the early 20th century by Mikao Usui in Japan as a way to encourage natural healing and energy balance. It was introduced in the United States in the 1930s and is now widely practiced as a complementary therapy. At Therapeutic Kneads, we honor this tradition while integrating Reiki into a modern, therapeutic approach to care.
