QiGong Therapy also known as Cosmic Healing Chi Kung, or Taoist Colour Healing, is a non-contact form of healing derived from pre-Taoist shamanic practices which underly Traditional Chinese Medicine. One of the most important parts of the Taoist practises is working with the energy moving within the body. This is a fascinating and altogether more controversial area of Chinese medical practise. In this process, the practitioner guides his/her own Qi, emitted through key acupuncture points in the body, to enhance Qi flow into the patient. In most instances, this is done without any physical contact. Qi Gong healing practices are only now becoming better known in the West, and to some individuals they represent an extremely challenging conceptual shift. It is necessary to realise that working on an energetic level can produce changes on a physical level.

 Reiki is a japanese form of healing. The word Reiki (loosely defined) means free passage of universal life force energy. Reiki originates in Tibet. The symbol Rei means spirit, ghost and soul. The symbol Ki means life force energy (as in akido). In China, life force energy is called Chi, in India, Prana. There are many names for life force energy; each culture seems to have its own. This is a contact “laying on of hands” and assists in balancing our physical as well as our energy bodies.
