Reiki Healing

This is a hands on and/or hands off treatment to channel positive energy and bring balance through the body which is carried out with the client lying on a massage couch, fully clothed and covered with a blanket, if you wish. You will not be touched anywhere inappropriate and I will fully explain where the hand positions are before I start. 

After treatment you may feel deeply relaxed or a bit groggy, so you will be sat up with a glass of water whilst you recover and aftercare advice will also be given.

As a Reiki Master/Teacher I also run Reiki attunement courses, so that you can learn to do Reiki for yourself, friends and family or practice for yourself, once you have completed the Level 2 attunement. Course dates will be posted on the home page and on my Facebook page or dates can be arranged, as required, for one to one attunements or small groups up to 4 people. Courses are one day and include lunch, refreshments, manual and a few other goodies! Ongoing support is provided. Please contact me for details or to arrange.   

What is Reiki and how does it work?

Reiki (ray-key) means "Universal Life Force." It has evolved in many different forms over many centuries and the method of hands on healing that I have been taught is the "Usui Shiki Ryoho" original system of natural healing. There are different theories as to where it actually originated but it was rediscovered in Japan in the early 20th Century by Sensei Mikao Usui. Dr. Chujiro Hayashi was taught by Usui in 1925 and he is responsible for the hand positions used in Reiki in the West today but it was his student, Mrs Hawayo Takata who brought it to the West and it is now widely used all over the world.    

Just like electrical appliances use and emit energy, our human Life Force energy flows through us and the bodily pathways are known as "Chakras." The force is also around us in what is called the "Auric Field." If the energy flow is disrupted then it can have a physical effect on our bodies and affect our health. You can often see the effect in a person who is unwell or consumed with negative thoughts and how they shrink away and lack that certain sparkle, whereas those who are happy and well seem to be bright and full of vitality and draw others towards them like a magnet. 

Reiki can heal and restore the natural energy flow by using positive energy to charge the affected energy fields and release and break down negative energy. It is not religious, just a wonderful, gentle but powerful therapy carried out with a positive intent to help your body start to heal itself. It cannot harm but helps to restore balance to the body and can be done on people of all ages and on any living thing. You may experience slight heat, coldness or tingles, as the energy flows to where it is most needed. Just keep an open mind, relax and allow the energy to flow.  

Reiki cannot stop people from passing on when it is their time to go but it can be beneficial in helping those who are completing their life journey to feel calm and at ease.

As a precaution, people with broken bones that have not yet set or those with pacemakers should not be treated. 

Reiki can:

Help relaxation

Help the body's natural healing process

Release tension

Improve mood

Aid sleep

Provide a sense of wellbeing

It may help with various medical conditions but this cannot be absolutely guaranteed. It is not a cure!
