Working with Hospices and Hospitals:

 

In 2018, Reiki Tradition began to build working partnerships with hospices and hospitals in the Oldham and Tameside area.  As all Reiki Practitioners trained here at Reiki Tradition are trained to National Occupational Standard (NOS) and Core Curriculum (CC) Qualification this allows our practitioners to work in these demanding professional environments and statutory settings within the NHS. Our work has continued throughout 2019 and beyond 2022. We are very proud to see our students and practitioners working in these environments.​ Our work continues today.

 

 

​

Our Reiki Lineage:

​

In 2013, Martin Thirlwell published a book ‘Step into Line’ - An insight into a Reiki Lineage. The book explains about the Past Masters; the history of Reiki; the introduction of Reiki into the UK; the traditional and non-traditional Reiki Systems (how these two systems came about); and details of memorabilia from Hawayo Takata.

 

‘Step into Line’ explains how much of the West has now developed the Eastern Way of Reiki; how manipulating the system into Western ways created the non-traditional systems and in doing so removed the spiritual essence from Reiki.

 

Martin was privileged to speak to all living Past Masters whilst writing the book. He confirms that after speaking with Janine Sande (6th generation), Judith Tripp Chasin (7th generation), Sarah Hulme (8th generation) and Ethel Kilroy (9th generation) that all Reiki Tradition teachings, symbols, attunements and degrees are taught exactly as they were at the time of the Past Masters.

A copy of Martin’s book is kept at the British Library to safeguard the future of the Lineage. We continually preserve the purity of the lineage in all our teaching, symbols, attunements and degrees in the traditional Reiki way- just as Dr Mikao Usui intended.

The Integrated Medicine Initiative:

 

In the UK there is currently voluntary self-regulation for complementary therapies; it is not compulsory. It is the Reiki Practitioner who is regulated, not the Reiki itself; it is how they work and their interaction with the public.

 

In February 1996, HRH Prince Charles proposed the Integrated Medicine Initiative (IMI) to encourage orthodox and complementary healthcare to work together within the NHS for the benefit of the British public. For this to happen, complementary therapies were required to be self-regulated and to develop robust systems to ensure high standards of practice and levels of care, to bring them in line with other healthcare professionals who are also expected to hold nationally recognised qualifications. The regulation of complementary therapies is about ensuring the professionalism and minimum standard of training and knowledge of a Complementary Therapist and therefore ensuring safety and reassurance for members of the public seeking complementary therapies. The General Medical Council (GMC) Guidance confirms that Doctors can refer clients to practitioners who are on Accredited Registers. Two of the main regulators of complementary therapies in the UK are the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) and the Federation of Holistic Therapist (FHT). To be eligible to join a regulator such as the CNHC or FHT, Reiki students need to complete Reiki training which meets the standards of the new Core Curriculum as provided at Reiki Tradition.

​

The House of Lords Science and Technology Committee report on Complementary Therapies advised that voluntary self-regulation be introduced for Complementary Therapies in 2000. As a result of this, 12 different therapy groups were invited by the Prince of Wales Foundation of Integrated Health (PWFIH), to be involved with the consultation and process towards voluntary self- regulation. This went through a ‘Federal Working Group’ and culminated in the introduction of the CNHC as one regularity body, although others have subsequently been formed.

​

The IMI is now the Integrated Medicine Alliance (IMA) who have now formed a 10-year plan on integrated healthcare. The Manifesto is called 'Hope for the Future' can be found here

​

Please note:

There are many providers that claim to provide Reiki Degree training over the internet / via an online course. To become accredited and trained as a Reiki Practitioner requires the student to be initiated by Attunements from a Reiki Master in person. This is an ancient process which is impossible to be done over the internet.

 

Here at Reiki Tradition, we are committed to correctly passing on the Dr Usui System of Natural Healing in its ancient form and teaching the correct symbols working to very high and specific standards which include the National Occupational Standards, The Core Curriculum, The Qualification Credit Framework, and the code of conduct for The Complimentary Natural Healthcare Council and the Federation of Holistic Therapist. Face-to-face teaching enables our Accredited students to conform to the Integrated Medicine Initiative and allows them to be registered on the Accredited Registers, and to work as complimentary healthcare practitioners within mainstream orthodox medicine.

​

Reiki Tradition School of Reiki are full members of the Integrated Medicine Alliance, Integrated Healthcare and the Research Council for Complementary Medicine.
