How Does Reiki Work?

All of our energy systems are linked, i.e, mind, body and soul; each of these systems is connected and can have an effect on each other. It follows then, that if a cleansing, healing energy flows through the body, the spiritual body and the mind will also bebefit. This is how Reiki works; flowing through the body, cleansing, healing and detoxifying the system on many levels and therefore healing the mind, body & emotions.

What Is A Reiki Treatment

The method of receiving Reiki is simple. The recipient remains fully clothed and lies on a couch or sits in a chair, (if you are unable to lie on a couch) and relaxes. I start by leading you into a relaxing state and then I start with various hand positions around the recipients head, followed by a body scan where I have my hands about 4 inches above your body. I then gently place my hands in a series of non-intrusive positions on or near the body. There is no massage or manipulation. The whole person is treated rather than specific areas. The Reiki energy goes to where it is needed.

What do Reiki treatments do?

The relaxing nature of Reiki can be very helpful to people especially at difficult times in their lives. We can all feel overwhlemed or disconnected, sometimes there is a real sense of isolation, both emotionally and spiritually. Reiki treatments can bring feelings of peace, centredness and an ability to cope better with challenges of life. Reiki energy flushes energy through your meridians to clear any blockages that cause you problems such as stress, anxiety, aches, pains etc. This assists the body's self healing.

Pregnancy

Reiki can be wonderful for pregnant women. Treatments can be very relaxing and enjoyable for the mother.

Contraindictions

The beauty of Reiki is that there are no known contraindications when used on its own. This makes it suitable when other treatments may not be possible.

How Much Reiki Will I Need?

A single session of Reiki may be sufficient, but it is best to discuss this with the practitioner. For instance, if you have a long standing illness/injury, you may need a series of sessions, however, you should feel improvement after each session. Reiki Practitioners are not trained in diagnosis and will not predict any specific outcome from treatment.
