Improve your health with traditional Japanese medicine
Treatment Session
In a typical treatment session, the client lies down face-up fully clothed as I begin with a standard set of hand placements around the head and torso to assess and treat. Following this, the client will turn face-down so I can assess and treat the back of the torso.
Each treatment is unique, and is adjusted to fit the needs of the client. The frequency of sessions are also adjusted to the client and their situation.
During treatment, clients may experience physical sensations such as warmth or tingling. Some people relax very deeply and may actually fall asleep during a treatment. Following a treatment, people often report feeling relaxed, peaceful, less tense, and more alert.

About me
Hey! My name is Andrew Anders and I practice and teach “Reiki”.
Specifically, I am an Usui Style Reiki Therapy (Usui Shiki Reiki Ryoho – 臼井式靈氣療法):
- therapist (chiryōshi – 治療師)
- teacher (reiju-sha – 靈授者)
- lineage-bearer (reiju sōkeisha – 靈授 相継者)
- successor (shishō – 師承)
in the Usui-Hayashi-Takata-Brown-Goslen-Fueston lineage.
Practicing since 2005, my current approach emphasizes early historical Japanese-American Reiki Ryoho methods and practical treatment processes. I aim to “take Reiki back into the clinic” and offer treatments like Hayashi Sensei and the practitioners between the 1920s-1980s.
Basically, I’m more old-school and clinical.
I also hold a 4-year graduate diploma in Classical Chinese Medicine and studied a variety of hands-on clinical skills in Japan. Lastly, I am an accomplished martial artist (5th degree instructor in two Korean martial art systems). All of these perspectives contribute to my understanding and inform my approach.

About Reiki
The secret method to invite good fortune
The spiritual medicine for 10,000 illnesses
Usui Reiki Ryoho (URR) is a Taisho era traditional Japanese spiritual healing method to invite good fortune and promote health. Usui Shiki Reiki Ryoho is the tradition carried on by Mikao Usui’s top student, Chujiro Hayashi and passed along to Hayashi’s successor Hawayo Hiromi Takata.
に霊法の主とする所は独り疾病を療するに止まらず要は天賦の霊能に因りて心を正しくし身を健にして人生の福祉を享けしむるに在り
This method (靈氣), though primarily aimed at healing disease, also seeks to correct the mind and strengthen the body, allowing people to enjoy a life of wellbeing through their inborn spiritual ability. – From the Monument to Usui’s Virtue
The most well known aspect of Usui Shiki Reiki Ryoho is healing hand therapy (Iyashino Teate Ryoho). Most Reiki Ryoho treatments begin with a standard series of hand placements to assess the state of the body and where imbalances may reside. From there I seek the root imbalance and treat it to improve the overall condition of the body.
with Chujiro Hayashi Observing - February 1938
Traditional East Asian medicine aims to balance yin and yang and promote harmony in and around the body. When balance is achieved, healing is encouraged and can occur. With Reiki Ryoho this return to balance can be considered Isei Henki – 移精変気 (or yí jīng biàn qì – 移精變氣), a method that “promotes root vitality and transmutes the qi”.
Rather than treating the branch-symptoms alone, Reiki Ryoho also treats the root. As such, this approach to healing tends to be deep, subtle, and comprehensive. Results are more noticeable and longer-lasting with consistent treatment.
