What is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced ‘Ray-Key’) is made of two Japanese words – ‘Rei’ meaning Universal Energy and ‘Ki’ Life Force. Reiki is a gentle non-invasive form of hands on healing that was rediscovered in the mid 1800’s by Japanese born Buddhist Monk, Dr Mikao Usui.

Reiki is the ‘Life Force Energy’ that flows through all living things, If a person’s ‘Ki’ is high and free flowing then we are more capable of being happy and healthy. However, if it becomes low or blocked, then we are more susceptible to illnesses, depression and stress.

What are the benefits?

Reiki has been known to:

Create deep relaxation
Relieve pain
Reduce stress
Help with depression
Increase energy
Improve quality of sleep
Strengthen immune system
Improve intuition
Accelerate the body’s self healing ability
Balance the energies in the body (mind, body and soul)

Reiki does not replace conventional medicine and can be safely used alongside other orthodox healthcare and natural remedies. It is widely used within the NHS and is also practised in hospices for palliative care.

What is a Reiki Treatment?

I will ask you to lie down, fully clothed, on a treatment couch so you can relax. Reiki healing works through clothing, blankets or even a plaster cast if necessary!

I will then gently place my hands on your body in a series of non-intrusive positions, spending several minutes in each position, allowing the Reiki energy to be transferred. Your whole body is treated rather than specific areas.

A treatment is a safe, non invasive and natural way of working with the energy centres of the body to promote balance and harmony on every level. By the laying on of hands, the practitioner acts as a channel for an input of pure energy, which balances and accelerates the body’s natural ability to heal physical and emotional ailments.

A treatment will normally take around an hour depending on your needs.
