Dot Blackwood will be leading a free Reiki program. Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that triggers the body’s natural healing ability and improves and maintains health. The word Reiki means "universal life energy" and is administered by a practitioner by placing their hands on or near the recipient. Reiki addresses imbalances in the flow of energy throughout the body. Used by a growing number of hospitals, it helps to alleviate pain, reduce stress and promote deep relaxation. Reiki treatments before, during or after a session of radiation or chemotherapy may reduce side effects such as fatigue and nausea. To sign up or for more information, please call the Beth C. Wright Center at 664-0339 or Fitness Central at 483-2222
