There are three levels to Reiki. I, II and III

*Reiki I:- At level I the initiate is attuned and connected to the Reiki source of healing energy. They are the capable of performing healing on themselves and other people, family and friends.

There are four attunements at this level. This level deals primarily with the physical realm.

Reiki II:- At this level the initiate is again attuned in order to establish a better connection with energies that heal mental and emotional issues and that can travel across a distance and time period (deemed Distant healing). The initiate also receive and learn about three Reiki symbols (The Power Symbol, The Emotional Symbol and The Distance Symbol). These symbols can be used to help focus energy for specific purposes. There is only one attunement at this level. The initiate must have been attuned to Reiki I before receiving Reiki II.

Reiki III, Master:- When the initiate is attuned into this level all the Reiki energy is unlocked and complete Mastery can be achieved. The initiate learns about two more symbols (Master symbol and Balancing symbol) and will be able to perform Reiki attunements for others. here is only one attunement at this level. The initiate must have been previously attuned to Reiki I and Reiki II before receiving this stage.

The Reiki  Master attunement strengthens and increases the healing and psychic abilities.*
