Have no fear! I will break it down in an easy-to-understand way.

What is Reiki
Pronounced "Ray-Key" it is defined as "a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing" by William Lee Rand in Reiki, The Healing Touch book.
This is how I describe it to new clients:
-Healing Touch
-Transfer of energy
-Raises your vibration
-Removes old or negative energy
-Resolves past traumas
-Increases happiness and peace
-Reduces physical pain
-Increases spiritual gifts
It's all about energy, frequency, and intention

Reiki is made of two Japanese words, Rei and Ki.
Rei: Spiritual Wisdom. It can be further interpreted to mean the 'healer' who brings supernatural or spiritual healing to earth.
Ki: Life Energy. Also known as Chi or Prana or the Biofield, it is a measurable force and frequency that surrounds and creates all of us and the world we live in.
Bringing both Japanese characters together, you can see how Reiki means the healing of our life force through spiritual connection and touch.
Reiki is not a religion,
It is not a super power or psychic ability,
It is the harnessing of divine energy and healing by a healer.
How it Works
A Reiki Practitioner is "attuned" by a Reiki Master. Attunement is a spiritual ceremony that takes place after the student take the Reiki class. It is when the Master clears and adjusts the subtle energy bodies of the student so they are better able to receive and channel the Reiki to help heal others.
A Reiki Practitioner is someone who was attuned, and is then able to harness and use the divine healing light to help heal others.
--Attuenment is different for each healer. My Reiki Master said she felt something instantly. After I became Reiki attuned and certified, the Reiki, in its divine wisdom, sent me on a path of healing and awakening. For I could not help heal others, without first doing a great deal of healing myself. My cousin says as Reiki Practitioners it is our job to remain as "clean" and "light" as possible so as to be a more powerful conduit for the Reiki energy to pass through.
Again, Reiki is not a power, it is a form of divine energy that the practitioner channels through themselves for the benefit of healing others
Reiki is not scary and can not do harm, because it is a spiritually conscious energy, aware of your deepest need of love and healings.
Reiki can be done in person or via distance healing. In person, the Reiki Practitioner will lay their hands on the client in various positions to initiate healing.
It works on the basis of knowledge about our personal energy fields and chakras that operate to keep us at our most vital and healthy as individuals. This energy is always in flux, and often can get stuck, blocked, or low.
These energy blockages can be caused by
1. negative emotions
2. negative people
3. entities
4. trauma
5. core beliefs
6. poor diet
on and on
You can see, anything that is unhealthy, affects our bodies and our life force.

--I had a few negative emotions stuck in my aura when I started my journey in Reiki healings. I always had a belief that I was "bad" or "wrong" and no matter what I seemed to do, I would always resort back to these feelings. Through Reiki I was able to remove these patterns from my being so I could rewrite a more beneficial story and have a healthier relationship with myself and the world around me.
Sound familiar to anyone? This is very common stuff for people!
How it Can Help You
Reiki enters our energy field and corrects and heals things we cannot necessarily see, but things that we can definitely feel. It corrects energy flow within the body to enable your life force to flow properly, adding to your physical and mental health (the same principles used in Acupuncture). Reiki is currently being used in hospitals and has been shown in peer reviewed studies to reduce mental health symptoms and pain
Reiki Practitioners, with experience, can see your chakras in their mind's eye, and are able to help you work on things that seem to be holding you back from you best life. Over time working with your Reiki Practitioner you will start to feel and experience personal and spiritual growth.
Identify what things you want to work on in your life, what things need to be healed, what things you want to highlight about yourself. Identify what spiritual growth you are looking for, what kind of guidance you need toward your greater purpose.
Reiki will bring all these things out for you, because all these things are within you.
Personally, I still get Reiki sessions done on me, as well as doing Reiki on myself at least once a week, sometimes more if I am feelings especially in need of comfort or clarity.
Reiki is not a linear experience, just like the best things in life, it is experienced differently for everyone.
Reiki is like prayer, it is a connection with God
Reiki is like medicine, it will help you heal
Reiki is like a massage, inducing relaxation
Reiki is like a tonic, releasing negative things from your body and life
Reiki is like a relationship, it is there to help you
Reiki is love
Reiki is light
Reiki is healing
Reiki is growth
