The Power of Reiki

If one’s “life force energy” is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei which means “Higher Power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. Reiki is therefore a spiritually guided life force energy. Some people can find this a little daunting until they experience a treatment – I did at first! Experiencing a treatment feels like a renewed energy that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and symptom and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

A reiki session will involve you lying down or relaxing in a comfortable reclined position and I will be seated behind your head, my hands will be placed above your shoulders/head and I will remain there for the treatment. I will explain the process to you before we begin and gain your consent to give reiki healing. You will lie there for approximately 45 minutes; it is not uncommon for some clients to fall asleep – this will not affect the treatment in anyway. You may notice some sensations such as heat, energy in the body or tingling. Some clients don’t experience any physical sensations – this does not mean it is not working, everyone’s experience is unique and can differ with each treatment. Afterwards I will gently rouse you and we may then discuss anything we experienced during the treatment – sometimes I can pick up on certain emotional/physical difficulties or ailments – with your permission I will make you aware of these, however I do not diagnose or give you medical information – this should be sought from your GP or other healthcare provider.
