My Reiki Lineage...

What is a Reiki Lineage?

The Reiki Lineage refers to the line of Reiki Masters that leads to the student. For traditional Reiki the line begins with Dr. Mikao Usui and continues with one of his Reiki Masters, then to one of theirs....

For a healing system to be called Reiki and be reconized as such, the lineage must trace back to Dr. Mikao Usui.
