WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM YOUR REIKI TREATMENT
Reiki is the Japanese word for universal energy. A Reiki practitioner is simply a channel for this universal energy. By placing their hands on your body, this energy gets channelled to you. Your body will direct where the energy is needed/flows.
A Reiki session usually lasts about 60 - 75 minutes. You will lie fully clothed on a massage table and covered by a blanket, while listening to calming music in the background. I will go through a set series of hand positions, or can focus on specific areas discussed prior to the session. If you are uncomfortable with "touch" then the session can be performed by using different hand positions above the body. The energy you receive is very gentle and people usually fall asleep shortly after the beginning of the session and sleep through it.
Every person has a different experience of a Reiki treatment – and every Reiki treatment you experience will also be different – because every time you have a treatment, your body will decide where the energy is needed most. Typically, clients report a feeling of ‘cold heat’ – or just simply warmth. Reiki provides deep relaxation which facilitates reduced stress and allows the body to start the healing process. Many clients have also reported a decrease in their pain levels. Reiki is beneficial for headaches and migraines, as well as relief from chronic pain and faster healing from injuries.

Important Note: Reiki treatments are not intended to give medical diagnosis or to serve as a substitute for current or recommended medical care. It serves as an adjunct, or complement, to conventional, Western medicine.
In order to achieve best results it is recommended that the first four sessions are taken for the period of one or two weeks. This allows the body to work quickly through the process of clearing toxins and dissolving energy blockages.
