Why choose Reiki?

Well, it’s such a spiritual treatment that it truly is hard to explain, as everyone’s experience is different, every time. That’s because a Reiki treatment will give you what you need at that particular time. People who have experienced reiki tell me that when they are feeling disconnected, unbalanced, stressed or overwhelmed, the treatment helps to restore a level of mental and physical relaxation, making them feel uplifted, lighter and calmer and I think all of us at some point could do with some of that.

About Reiki…

Usui Reiki is a complementary health approach. It was created by Dr Usui in the early 1900s. deriving the term from the Japanese words rei, meaning “universal,” and ki, which refers to the life force energy that flows through all living things. Today, Reiki is used all over the world, including in hospitals and hospices, to complement other forms of health treatments.

In summary, it is a spiritual practice that places your mind, body and soul (mental, emotional and energetic layers) into a state of healing. Reiki is an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation, reduces stress and anxiety through gentle touch.

As a Reiki practitioner, I use my hands to deliver energy to your body, improving the flow and balance of your energy to support whatever healing you need at that particular time. You determine the energy flow from my hands by taking only what you need. Reiki treatments typically last about 45 minutes. During a session, you’ll lie on the massage table fully clothed, as I gently place my hands, palms down, on or just above your body in specific energy locations. Reiki differs from other touch therapies in that there is no pressure or massage involved. You may experience the energy in the form of sensations like heat, tingling or pulsing where I place my hands. Sometimes, people feel sensations moving throughout the body, some see beautiful colours, some feel like they’re floating while other people do not perceive any change at all. However, most people feel very relaxed and peaceful during their reiki treatment, which ultimately promotes harmony and wellbeing in the areas of imbalance in your life.
