About the Reiki Council
In July 2008 the Reiki Regulatory Working Group (RRWG) confirmed that
it had completed its work towards regulation and would now be the Lead
Body for Reiki. It was agreed that the Reiki Regulatory Working Group
would be renamed the Reiki Council with effect from 15 July 2008, to
reflect its new role.
(For more please see: Regulation
Update Oct 2008 - The Reiki Council)
A UK Reiki Federation-led initiative, the Reiki Regulatory Working Group (RRWG) was set up by representatives of the UKRF and other Reiki organisations in collaboration with the Prince of Wales’ Foundation for Integrated Health. The RRWG provided a forum for the exchange of views, concerns, standards and best practice with the intention of “speaking with one voice” in working towards Voluntary Self Regulation of Reiki and creation of the single UK Register of Professional Reiki Practitioners.
We invite other Reiki organisations or individual Reiki Practitioners and Teachers to make contact with any of the participating members of the Reiki Council (currently still listed on the old RRWG Website).
