The main purpose of this paper is to analyze and provide reliable solutions to the Reiki application technique, starting from the fundamental principles expressed by the Reiki origin philosophy, which are proved to be in accordance with the Informational Model of Human and Living Structures (IMHLS). This model reveals the following main fundamental features of the living organisms: (i) On the entire scale of evolution and organization, from the eukaryotic cell—the composing unit of human, plants, animals to human, the living organisms show a similar informational structure, defined as Informational System of Human and Living Structure (ISHLS); (ii) this informational system is organized in seven informational components, three of them assuring the structuration/restructuration/reproduction and maintenance of the body itself, and the other four the connection with external/inner reality for adaptation; (iii) the neuro-connections between brain and body of the informational components of the ISHLS correspond with the activity of “Chakras” of the ancient empirical model as vital centers of human; (iv) the activity of the ISHLS is reflected in mind by cognitive centers, explaining consciousness. The comparison between the informational results of the IMHLS, with the philosophic Reiki origin concepts, sustains the application of Reiki technique, but improves its understanding and right application by using new, modern concepts developed by the informational model, in accordance not only with their ancient, empirical expression, but much more than that, with actual scientific knowledge on this issue nowadays, concerning information and info-transferring/communication stream in the living bodies. The successful application and effective results of this new version allow to consider this as Ro-Reiki version, just to recognize the essential Romanian contribution to this improvement, concerning the implication and effectiveness of information and the info-communication mechanisms into the human and living organisms, explained in scientific terms of information and psycho-somatic therapy effects.
