What is Reiki?

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom, Universal or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". 

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. 

​

Why do we need a Reiki Treatment?

There is not a person in this universe that has not experienced some form of discomfort, fear, sadness, anxiety, anger or stress. Situations arise everyday that we need to deal with. That may challenge us, push us beyond our comfort zones. For some that may be okay. Exercising, meditation, reading may all be enough for that person to relieve these emotions and feelings. But for most we hold it in and carry it with us long after the situation has passed. Have you ever been in a room and felt that the energy was heavy or that uneasy feeling in your gut when you're stressed or anxious? That is the energy that is being held within us. We can hold onto this for years, childhood trauma or daily stressful jobs, illness, grief. Eventually these cause blockages in our energy systems and stop the natural flow of energy through our bodies causing disease.

Reiki helps clear these energy centres and blockages. But just like a shower you have each day you also need to cleanse your energy on a regular basis. There are ways you can do this yourself. Reiki is a great way to help you get clear and then can be used for maintenance like a deep clean.

​

What does a Reiki Hands on session include?

Every person has a unique Reiki session that is tailored to their needs. Once you arrive at our rooms, you will be welcomed to a peaceful, relaxing space with soothing music. After the preliminary discussions and relevant paperwork completed you will gently lie on the Reiki table fully clothed and comfortable. A soft blanket and eye pillow is offered. You will be able to relax, leave your thoughts behind and let go of any stress you may have been holding onto. I will guide you to a safe place where you can experience the lovely energy that Reiki provides. You will feel my hands placed gently on you at various points around your body - clearing any unwanted energies and blockages. Many people drift off in and out of a relaxing sleep state. You will hear the bell toll 3 times at the start of the session and 3 times at the end. The use of crystals, pendulum and Aura Soma pomanders may be used but will be discussed prior to your session. Reiki is a loving, gentle, universal energy that works for your highest good.

​

How long is each session?

Your first session will take approximately 90 mins of which 60mins will be on the table. There will be a 15 min discussion pre-post session. Follow up sessions are usually 60mins - 75mins with 45-60mins on the table.

​

What do I bring?

There is no need to bring anything. Just wear comfortable clothes. It is preferable to remove shoes, heavy jewellery or watches or glasses. You may bring a crystal if there is one you wear or use often. Water will be offered.

​

How will I feel after a Reiki session?

Every client has a unique experience. Some may feel a sense of calm, peace, clarity others feel energised and refreshed. During the treatment you may feel heat, cool, tingling, shifting, clearing, stomach grumbling. You may see images, colours or just fall asleep. Every session you have may be different as you are clearing more of your energy field. You will experience exactly what you are meant to, what it is you are needing at that time.
