Ancient Chinese proverb; man who skilled with hammer, sees all problems to be like a nail.

Wise uncle B, he say, expert is someone who knows more and more, about less and less.

I'm also rather sceptical of Reiki (the attunement and organisational aspects). I have experience with tradition Chinese Health Arts, utilizing ones own intrinsic energy, and cosmic energy. Such energy is natural and freely available to all people, you don't need to have some kind of qualification or pass a test or join any organisation, to access this.

Now, of course, the right training within the right organisation may well help you to develop, of course, but at the same time, any organisation claiming to have sole ownership on such things, I would give a wide birth to. It's kinda like saying, you need to go to church, to access <god>. Sorry, but that's a load of c**p, and I kinda get the feeling that Reiki is along those same lines.

Is it?
