Reiki Healing

The Japanese characters in the word Reiki are usually translated as 'Universal Life Energy', other translations of the word include 'Soul Energy' and 'Mysterious Spirit'.

Reiki is a gentle healing energy that works on many levels: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. The energy is transferred through the hands of the Reiki healer, and the client draws as much energy as is needed at that time. As is usually the case with any form of spiritual healing your own energy system, or 'higher self', decides how much energy is transferred, and how that energy is distributed.

Reiki treatments balance the body's energy system and work to clear any energy blockages that may be affecting your health or general well being. Essentially, Reiki empowers your own innate healing ability - it helps you to heal yourself.

As well as helping with any physical or emotional issues you may be working through, Reiki is a wonderful method of relaxation. This makes Reiki an effective stress reliever. Those who use Reiki find it an invaluable healing energy at times of emotional turmoil, stress or change, bringing clarity of mind and helping you to let go of the past as you move forward. It can also help with pain management in chronic or post-operative conditions.

Reiki is practised in the west in various forms. I have been lucky enough to receive teachings that draw on the intuitive, spiritual methods favoured in Japan, where the healing system was begun by Mikao Usui (often referred to by Reiki people as 'Usui Sensei'). This intuitive method means that my Reiki treatments do not rely on a standard format. Every treatment you will receive from me is tailored to you and your own needs at that time.

Reiki Treatments

Reiki treatments are gentle and relaxing, and work to balance the body's energy system. During the treatment, you may experience warmth, coolness or a slight tingling sensation. Some people also see light or colours during the treatment. Still others experience only a deep sense of relaxation - or even fall asleep! These are all things you may feel, but the experience of Reiki is different for everyone.

You will be fully clothed for your Reiki treatment, although I will ask you to remove your shoes. During the session my hands will make only gentle contact with or hover slightly above your body.

Reiki does not conflict with other holistic therapies or any medications.
