This book describes an elegant and powerful energy-healing system that can be used straight away by all Reiki practitioners and Masters and which is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Five Element theory. It is an energy acupuncture that requires no knowledge of meridians or acupoints: a system that is simple, intuitive and profound in its effects. Product Description The manual is unique. Firstly, it is easy-to-read, down-to-earth and really comprehensive, a complete and clear guide to the practice of Five Element Reiki, ideal for people working at Second Degree level and above. The manual distils the principles of TCM and Five Element theory in an easy to understand guide, and shows all Reiki practitioners how to detect energy imbalances in themselves and others, how to balance the elements and how to treat the elements.
