Let me introduce myself and explain about this web site. My name is Lucky Kruse and I am 62 years old. Like a lot of you, I had become very disillusioned with the medical community here in the US. The high cost of health care is just an example of many other reasons which are too numerous to mention. I asked myself a question "Isn't there a better way?" That simple question started me on a journey of discovery and wonder. Some of what I found was just garbage and then one night while on my quest, I started looking into the Eastern medicine which is totally different than ours. It offered so much. The Chinese, as well as other Eastern nationalities, have been able to keep themselves healthy without the higher priced medicines we use today. They have many forms to take care of their health, such as Meditation, Yoga, Tai Chi and Qigong. Also, they live longer and are in better health most of their lives until they adopt our way of life. So I believe that by using a combination of Western principals and the ancient Eastern ways we can maintain and improve our quality of health.

What is Reiki

Reiki practitioners channel energy in a particular pattern to heal and harmonize. Unlike other healing therapies based on the premise of a human energy field, Reiki seeks to restore order to the body whose vital energy has become unbalanced. Reiki energy has several basic effects: it brings about deep relaxation, destroys energy blockages, detoxifies the system, provides new vitality in the form of healing universal life energy, and increases the vibrational frequency of the body.
