Reiki Energy Healing

Reiki is an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation, reduce stress, and anxiety through gentle touch to a hands-off method. Reiki practitioners use their hands to deliver energy to your body, improving the flow and balance of your energy to support healing. 

Reiki works with the energy fields around the body and involves the transfer of universal energy from the practitioner’s palms to the client. 

Reiki aids in healing by helping people become energetically balanced — physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. 

The Universal Life Force Energy has always been around, so nobody created it but, Mikao Usui developed reiki around 1922, deriving the term from the Japanese words rei, meaning “universal,” and ki, which refers to the vital life force energy that flows through all living things. Now reiki is used all over the world including for various forms of health treatment.

Reiki sessions last anywhere between 30-90 minutes depending on the person. For in-person sessions, you will lie on a comfortable massage table fully clothed as your reiki practitioner gently places their hands just above your body in specific energy areas. If it's for a distance healing session, it's best to be in a relaxed state with no distractions. The reiki practitioner will perform the distant healing at the scheduled time you selected for your session. The practitioner will perform the healing and will notify you when the session is complete.

During the session, you may experience the energy in the form of sensations like heat, tingling or pulsing where the Reiki practitioner has placed their hands. Please keep in mind that some people may feel sensations moving throughout the body, while others may not feel any sensations or change at all.

Most people feel very relaxed and peaceful during reiki treatment, and many may fall asleep during the process. It varies from person to person but it's a high chance that you will feel extremely relaxed.

Reiki works on the entire self – mind, body and emotions – and because it is universal life force energy, reiki may be successful in all types of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual healing. This includes stress related illnesses, cancer, digestive problems, chronic pain, depression and anxiety. However, reiki treatments aren't a substitute for medical attention or issues, illnesses or diseases.

After a session, you may feel a wide range of things. As mentioned above, you may experience hot or cold sensations, tingling, literal energy movement, lightness, heaviness, emotions rising or falling away, thoughts calming, sleepiness or nothing at all. If nothing is felt at all, do not panic! Sometimes it takes time to feel things days later or even weeks later. The more treatments you get (if necessary), the likely you will feel the change.
