Reiki

The belief that life energy flows through the body, deeply affecting our entire being, has been embraced by many ancient cultures. The word ‘Reiki’ means universal life energy. It is a gentle, holistic method of healing and relaxation which can help to bring balance and harmony on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. Reiki is spiritual in nature but is now widely accepted as a complimentary therapy. 

Benefits

Reiki promotes the body's ability to heal itself and can help to relieve immediate stress and anxiety. Its real benefits are experienced over time and a course of treatments is highly recommended for long term benefits and change. Benefits are many and include:

• deep relaxation, relieving stress (for work and life overload, exam stress)
• aiding the release of discomfort and ongoing physical and/or emotional pain
• lessening feelings of anxiety, depression and fear
• promoting feelings of balance and well-being

Spirituality and Personal Growth

Reiki can help awaken your inner potential and start, or further you, on your own unique spiritual journey of self discovery and greater self-awareness. Regular Reiki releases negative and blocked energies and helps heighten your ability to perceive life as more serene and beautiful.

What happens in a Reiki treatment?

The client remains fully clothed while I channel energy, ‘Ki’, by gently laying my hands on or just above the client’s body, inducing a wonderful deep state of relaxation and natural healing. I am often able to identify areas of greater need and focus the treatment for my client’s optimum good.

There is no application of pressure, manipulation or massage, which makes it safe and suitable for young or old, and to use with other natural or complementary therapies, as well as in conjunction with conventional forms of treatment.  It does not involve any diagnosis or use of medicines or remedies.

What will I feel?

Each experience is unique to the individual. Nearly all clients enter a state of deep relaxation. Some experience seeing beautiful colours, others describe vivid visualisations or of feeling tingling sensations. Many describe a feeling of extreme inner calm and well-being following a Reiki treatment.
