Reiki - The Healing Touch
Reiki is a gentle, non invasive, healing therapy, that works to balance mind, body and spirit.
As a qualified Reiki Practitioner I can provide a session at your home or you are welcome to come to me. At either location a quiet and calm atmosphere is preferred, but Reiki can be done anywhere, no matter what else is happening either around or directly to the recipient.
You remain fully clothed during the treatment but you will be asked to remove your shoes, watch, jewellry and spectacles. Reiki passes through anything, even plastercasts, and therefore there is no need to remove any clothing during a healing session.
You will be made comfortable lying down on a massage couch, or seated in a chair, calming music will help you to relax. The main thing is for you to be as comfortable as possible.
During your treatment you may choose to be quiet so as to truly calm your mind and body but you are encouraged to speak up if you feel uncomfortable in any way or need to ask a question.
I gently place my hands non-intrusively in a sequence of positions which cover the whole body. In this way the mind, body and emotions are treated at the same time, rather than specific symptoms. Working intuitively I trust the communication between yourself and the energy between my hands to find the blockages. Additional placements on the limbs can be done as needed - for example, if there is an injury or surgical scar.
There is no massage or manipulation in the session just a light placing of the hands on the body. No intimate areas will be touched. If you do not wish to be touched please say because the Reiki will work just as well off the body.
You may feel heat, tingling or coolness as your body takes in the Reiki energy. You may feel these sensations more in certain areas where more energy is flowing or you may feel nothing very much at all apart from a deep sense of comfort and peace. Many people drift in and out of sleep, most say it is the most relaxed they have felt in a long time.
Everyone experiences Reiki differently. Some feel a slight tingling or sensations of warmth or coolness, others just a deep relaxation. Some find themselves in a deep meditative state whilst others feel rejuvenated and energised. Some even fall into a deep and refreshing sleep. Other common experiences are subtle pulsations where the practitioner's hands are placed or cascading waves of pulsations throughout the body.
Sometimes the experience of Reiki is dramatic, while for other people, the first session in particular may be uneventful, although they feel somehow better afterward. The most common experience is an almost immediate release of stress and a feeling of deep relaxation.
Reiki gently allows the body to let go of old emotions, tensions and unhelpful patterns. Sometimes this causes tearfulness or a slight feeling of pressure as negativity is released. This often leaves you feeling lighter, as if a weight has been lifted from your chest and shoulders.
Reiki is cumulative and even people who don't notice much the first time usually have progressively deeper experiences if they continue. Besides the immediate experience of the Reiki, you may notice other changes that continue to unfold as the day goes on: perhaps stronger digestion, a sense of being more centered and poised and less reactive, and sleeping deeply that night.
A full treatment usually takes a minimum of 1 hour although shorter sessions can be arranged.
