According to Mikao Usui-Sensei (15 August 1865 – 9 March 1926), Usui Reiki Ryoho could be called "a spiritual healing method. But it is also a physical healing method as ki and light radiate from the body of the practitioner - particularly from their hands, eyes and mouth. So if they focus the eyes, breathe on, or stroke the affected area, pain such as toothache, headache, neuralgia, colic, stomach-ache, cuts, bruises, burns, etc. But even one treatment will bring signs of improvement. How can medical science explain this phenomenon? Well, the reality is more impressive than fiction. If you observed the results for yourself you would agree. Even those who don't want to believe cannot ignore the results. As it is not based on suggestion, faith and acquiescence are not required. It doesn't matter if a person doubts or flatly refuses to believe in it. For example, it works just as well with small children and
those who are seriously ill and unconscious. Perhaps one in ten has faith in our method before treatment, but after that first treatment most people feel the benefits and then their faith develops. All disorders, whether psychological or organic in origin can be treated by this method. Usui Reiki Ryoho does not use medicines or medical equipment. Only focussing the eyes, blowing, laying on of hands, tapping, and stroking. This is how it heals".
