Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive form of energy healing which promotes the body to relax and begin its own healing. Reiki can be practised hands-on or hands-off. Reiki consists of a series of hand placements starting at the head and moving down the body to the feet, the client remains fully clothed.

 

Clients have asked me how they will feel during reiki, but this is so individual! It is not unusual for people to feel warmth, coldness, tingling, stomach activity, deep relaxation, visualisations, or sometimes nothing at all. Some people have big shifts or feel emotional releases. All of it is perfectly normal, even if you feel nothing at all the reiki healing is still working and doing what it needs to do.

For many years, Reiki was discounted by science as there was no way to test the human energy field. Without proof of its existence, the idea of an invisible body of energy was considered nonsense. However, times have changed, and science has gone from a conviction that it doesn't exist, to absolute certainty of its existence. Studies now show Reiki raises the vibration of the human energy field in clients. 

​

Because of the super gentle nature of Reiki, it makes it suitable for everyone, including babies, children, during pregnancy, post partum, the elderly, people with chronic or painful conditions and palliative care. Reiki can also be performed while being seated which makes it wonderful for those with mobility issues. Reiki is now been integrated into many health care settings, including hospitals and palliative care centres.

 

Some of the things Reiki can help you with are:

​It is important to note your body does all the work, the reiki practitioner is simply there to facilitate the flow of energy and hold space for you to heal whatever needs healing.
