What is Reiki?

Reiki translates into Rei meaning universal and Ki meaning life energy - energy flows through all living things.  It is a gentle Japanese stress reduction and relaxation technique that helps the body heal itself, originating from the teachings of Dr Mikao Usui.  It works with the whole person -  body, mind, emotions, and spirit - helping to support overall balance and wellbeing.

​

What can I expect from a treatment?

You are invited to lie down, relax, and be open to the healing benefits of Reiki. The treatment is non-invasive and the practitioner uses their hands placed lightly on or off the fully clothed body to guide energy flow.

 

What will I feel from the treatment?

Everyone experiences Reiki differently, with some saying they just feel deeply relaxed and often experiencing a sense of feeling calm and peaceful, and many just falling asleep which is a wonderful relaxing boost.  People often describe a variety of sensations during a Reiki session. These may include warmth, tingling, or seeing colours, while others experience emotional shifts that suggest the body is restoring balance and harmony. It can sometimes bring emotions to the surface as the body relaxes and begins to let go of built-up stress, fear, or anxiety that may have been held physically. For those who feel emotionally overwhelmed or disconnected, Reiki can help create a sense of inner calm, similar to the effects of meditation. This deeply relaxing state allows the body and mind to reset, supporting overall harmony and wellbeing.

​

Who is Reiki suitable for?

Reiki is suitable for anyone and can easily be incorporated into everyday life. It can also be used alongside both conventional and complementary treatments, often providing valuable emotional support during periods of recovery or stress.

​

Can Reiki be used with other forms of healing?

Reiki is a complementary therapy that can be effectively combined with other forms of healing and traditional professional medical care.  It works particularly well when combined with other therapies, for example, it is amplified when boosted with the power of Crystals.
